A similar situation: I met a young software developer, almost completely blind (he had a very narrow tunnel vision), so he did all software development using a Braille line, where he could read a single line at a time by stroking his fingertips over the Braille line. He had the entire source code inside his head.

I willingly admit that I think it a great help to see an entire method at a glance on the screen or printout. I would be using a screen even if I had the mental capability to keep every source line in my head.
