Dang! Interesting question, too bad no one who really knows has seen it.
I would GUESS that a blind person could have problems with symbol-processing that would be the same as dyslexia, but I may not be correct in my understanding of dyslexia.
I'm pretty sure it isn't a problem with the eyes, though it may be a problem with the visual-interpretation part of the brain, in which case it's less likely that there would be blind dyslexics. (Or so I'm continuing to guess.)
It's also possible that the term dyslexia is a sort of catch-all for a number of different but similar conditions, in which case the answer would most likely be yes.
Have you tried an Internet search for blind and dyslexia, or reading problems and blind?

no. dyslexia is a condition related to sight. the connection between the optic nerve and the brain causes information to be perceived out of order.

dyslexia is not related to sight.
I touch type and still suffer mild dyslexia when typing.
I make the same mistakes as when I'm writing.
So from that I believe braile uses could suffer from dyslexia.
But that is opinion not fact.
