You can also make a "slurry" that is easier to feed from a syringe, rather than having to force feed her bugs. You can make this using

Repti-aid insectivore powder, (1/2 tsp)
peach or apricot baby food (1/4 tsp)
splash of pedialyte (1 1/2 tsp)
well squished up 2 week crickets 5-10

mix this all together well and draw it up into a syringe, drip a drop on the end of her nose and let her lick it off, or let her lick the syringe end. This method is way less stressful for her than forcefeeding her whole insects, and will put weight on her faster and more healthfully than waxworms alone.

Also, how do you figure she is blind?
she tries to just walk off the table and she cant see crickests to eat them and if one touches her she acts supprised you can definatly tell
