I have always loved superheroes, and Daredevil, who is blind, captured my attention long ago. The main character, Matt Murdock (Daredevil), became blind after an incident involving a chemical spill when he was a child. The accident gave him superhuman senses and the ability to navigate the world in a different way.
Blinded as a youngster by radioactive chemicals, Matt Murdock soon found that his other senses had been heightened to extraordinary levels. As an adult, he took on the mantle of Daredevil- the protector of the gritty New York neighborhood Hell's Kitchen.
This has been far from the only time that Daredevil has regained his eyesight. Once it was given to him by the Beyonder and another time he regained it by switching bodies with Doctor Doom. During another instance with Moondragon, she gave Matt his sight back to help her.
Of course, readers know the real reason Matt Murdock can never permanently see again (outside of alternate reality stories). Blindness is such an intrinsic part of Daredevil's appeal that becoming a sighted man would diminish him as a character.
With time and training he has honed that ability to a point that he can “see” objects with his hearing. Accident which left him blind, also developed kind of echolocation skill, which is called radar sense to be precise. This skill + rest of his heightened senses allows Daredevil to move like he's totally normal guy.
Although the character is blind, his remaining four senses function with superhuman accuracy and sensitivity, giving him abilities far beyond the limits of a sighted person. Few characters know that the hero cannot see. Daredevil developed a Radar-Sense, as well as echolocation.
Matthew Michael "Matt" Murdock, also known as Daredevil, is a fictional character and superhero from Marvel Comics, appearing as the titular character of his comics, and a major character in The Avengers and The Defenders comics.
Shepherded by both his training as a lawyer as well as the Catholic values from his youth, Daredevil is at a unique crossroads between being a "good" superhero and a reckless, vengeful vigilante.

In the battle's aftermath, Spider-Man would deduce that Daredevil is really blind, and reveal this secret in front of Electro who would in turn tell it to the press upon his delivery to the authorities. When the Owl would learn that Daredevil was blind, he would use this secret to his advantage.
But in the comics, Daredevil specifically states how the rain is interfering with his other senses and actually made it harder for him to "see." While Daredevil is able to track Goldy partially by his heartbeat, the rain and a nearby construction site interfere with Matt's senses enough that Goldy is able to get the ...
While in the middle of confronting a low-level thief, The Beyonder grants Daredevil his vision back unannounced, which disorients Matt and causes him to fall into a vat of chemicals. As he emerges astonished with his returned ability to see, he quickly realizes this was the work of The Beyonder.
Karen Page & Daredevil's Romance Grew Throughout Marvel Television's Daredevil Series. Perhaps Matt Murdock's most prominent romantic interest throughout all three seasons of Daredevil was Deborah Ann Woll's Karen Page.
Karen Page is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She serves as the original love interest for Daredevil, under Matt Murdock's employ as his office manager.
Daredevil's fighting technique is perfectly suited for taking down unarmored villains, but would do very little against the strong armor of Iron Man. Unable to land a real blow to the Avenger, Daredevil would more than likely find himself dispatched by Iron Man before their battle had gone on for too long.
Many superheroes, including Daredevil himself, have claimed that Spider-Man is the greatest hero among them. But his naïveté and average combat skills still put him a tier below Daredevil, whose martial arts skills, cynicism, and powers apparently make him the better overall combatant.
Kingpin - A ruthless crime lord and the archenemy of Daredevil, indeed uncontested as Daredevil's greatest enemy. The Kingpin also serves as an enemy for the Punisher and Spider-Man. Kirigi - A ninja assassin after being resurrected by the Hand.
Daredevil's super senses are his biggest crimefighting edge. They're also his biggest weakness. Imagine his super-hearing that's so acute it's almost like radar … and then imagine what it must feel like for him when some mook fires a shotgun right next to him.
While it's true that Daredevil is tougher and more brutal than Hawkeye in CQC, he's not called “Puncheye”. Instead, Hawkeye used his bow to keep the Devil of Hell's Kitchen at bay. Not to mention, Daredevil has access to sonic arrows, which is one of the weaknesses that Daredevil has.
Jackie Murdock was the son of Matt Murdock, the vigilante known as Daredevil and mayor of San Francisco, who had been born apparently without a trace of his father's super powers. Shortly after Jackie's birth, Matt retired from his super hero career.
Matt would continually do ridiculous things to keep his identity safe, such as the time he completely made up having a twin brother, Mike Murdock. It only got weirder when that brother took on a life of his own. Mike Murdock first "appeared" way back in 1967's Daredevil #25 by Stan Lee and Gene Colan.
This is why Daredevil has been an Avengers member in the past, despite the fact that he is the first to admit he really shouldn't be a member of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Over the years, [Daredevil] has made a name for himself as a major hero, earning him an invitation to join the Avengers.
