I taught a couple of phonology-adjacent courses (phonetics & morphology) to a blind student, but that was 20 years ago, so the technological options will have changed. But one thing that worked well for us and may still be relevant is using SAMPA for transcriptions. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAMPA

The student I was working with used a Braille terminal. Because SAMPA is ASCII-based, it was a lot simpler to work with than Braille IPA, and it’s pretty easy to transliterate between SAMPA and IPA.
