For blindness it is relatively easy to simulate for a sighted person as long as the blindness they are trying to simulate is total rather than partial, just turn the screen off. But a sighted user will be much less proficient at using anything like that, so it is probably better to find someone who isn't sighted and so does everything like that. Otherwise it will take far longer to recognise any issues
