Answers:

The word is spelled phlebotomist, but bless your little heart for trying, because if you can't even spell it, you are going to have one hell of a time learning it.

But to answer your question, yes you do need to be able to see what you are doing in order to properly perform most jobs, especially those that involve health and medicine (bad vision could cause fatal mistakes). This doesn't mean your natural eye sight has to be perfect though. So long as you have medicated eye glasses or contacts that make up for your natural vision's short comings, and allow you to see well, you should be good to go.
