או כלך לדרך זו נאמר דמים בחוץ ונאמר דמים בפנים מה דמים האמורים בפנים חיסר אחת ממתנות לא עשה ולא כלום אף דמים האמורים בחוץ חיסר אחת ממתנות לא עשה כלום

Tosefta Chagigah

Yochanan ben Dahavei says in the name of Rabbi Yehuda, Neither is a blind man [obligated to appear at the Temple on the Festivals], as it says (Ex. 23:17), "[All of your males] shall be seen," this excludes the blind. Rebbi answered the words of Yochanan ben Dahavei: The Sages decided to support the opinion of (סִיעַ) Rabbi Yehuda [in reliance upon] (1 Sam. 1:22), "Hannah did not ascend, because she said to her husband, 'When the child is weaned, [I will bring him, that he may appear before the Lord]." [Just as a minor is not obligated until he can ascend independently, so too a blind person, who requires support to ascend the Temple, is not obligated to appear (see Chag. 6a:3).]
