Another way for a totally blind person to reboot an Iphone, is to press the home and lock buttons at the same time.  But i would only suggest this as a last resort.  You can also call the Apple Access-ability  line @ at (877)204-3930.

You could hold the sleep/wake button again for a few seconds until you see an Apple logo, but if you can't see, there is no verbal indication that it's rebooting.  So, if you choose to go with this method, there will be a lot of trial/error.  However, plugging the phone into an outlet will restart it, if it's powered off.  Wait a minute or so and the phone should reboot completely.  I hope this helps. What else have you tried?
