I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know whether or not a suit or legal  
action is possible, but I just don't get the fundamental basis of the  
landlord's objection.  The landlord sounds as if he may be indulging  
in magical thinking--blindness will cause catastrophe somehow, in the  
same way you shouldn't step on a crack, break your mother's back.   
What is the connection between being blind and having "something bad  
happen?"  How does being blind precipitate misfortune, or how does  
being blind imply increased likelihood of injury?  The landlord sounds  
mentally ill, as I say, and I would be quite dubious of his ability to  
competently carry out any duties related to the place you'd rent.
