Brilliant - they probably take more care and be more aware of their limitations than some fully sighted idiots.

Safety factors aside, I see no reason a blind turner can't be as capable as a sighted one. Vision is good for quickly moving the tool to the job or determine incipient faults, but once you start cutting it's all about the feel and the sound.of the tool.
