Healing of the Man Born Blind

"When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing."

"He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see."

Why did Jesus use clay?

John links 'Siloam' with 'Sent.' The clay, the washing, and the going all called for obedient faith — and recalled God's forming man from the dust.

Is this different from other blind healings?

Yes. John 9 specifically records a man born blind, a healing the people said had never been heard of before (John 9:32).
