The story begins on a day when a comet, Billiard, passes close to Earth, causing a spectacular meteor shower. However, the event has an unforeseen consequence: the intense radiation from the comet impairs the vision of people who watch it, leaving them blind. The main character, Bill Masen, a biologist who has been working on a cure for triffid stings, wakes up in a hospital to find that most of the population has been rendered blind.
As society collapses, Masen joins a small group of survivors, including a young woman named Josella, who possess some form of immunity to the blindness. The group embarks on a perilous journey through a world overrun by the triffids, tall, mobile, and deadly plants that have become a dominant force. The triffids, it turns out, have been a common sight on the British coastlines, but their purpose had been benign – until the comet's radiation triggered a change in their behavior.
