Toph was born blind, but she sees with her earthbending so it's okay, it's like nature reimbursed her for her disability.

In the show "Avatar: The Last Airbender" Toph is blind because i belive she was born like that that's also the reason why her perents think that she is helpless and weak.

Aang needed a earth bender that 'listened to the earth'. All other earth benders use brutal force to bend earth, but Toph, being blind, needed some other way to earth bend. She learned to earth bend from the badgermoles (the creators of earthbending) which are blind. Toph learned to feel the vibrations in the earth, and learned to wait and 'listen'. The creators made Toph blind because Aang needed a earth bender that 'listened to the earth'.

Yes. She "sees" the vibrations in the earth, and later on, metal, with her feet and therefore she can tell where to hit and when to Dodge.

Well, yes she was blind when she had her daughter. But Toph is only blind in a limited way. As long as she has contact with earth, she can sense most things.
