But I copied one particular post from that below.. I don't know if this user still comes to the forum or not, but thought it worth posting.
e: Blind CHL applicant

In 1996 we were told by Lt. Dan Walker that a blind person would not be issued a CHL. He told our instructor class that DPS had been challenged on that position and he confirmed that a blind person would not be issued a license.

I would check with DPS legal and see what they say. Also, 100% blind may mean they are legally blind, but still have some vision such as shapes and contrasts, so they may be able to discern the silhouette outline and would in turn be able to see an attacker.
