[RPG] How to the blind character get temporary sight

blinddnd-5evision-and-light

My character in D&D 5e Homebrew as I created her, a 2nd-level pyromancer has her eyes burnt out magically. The DM told me that they cannot be returned by any healing spell. (Of course, the wish spell could do this, but my current level and funding is much too low for that.)

So I was wondering: Is there any cheap way to return my character's vision, or some of it?

I would like to have some sight overall, maybe for short usage or something like that, but for most part I would like to keep the character blind.

Find familar

The find familiar spell is not on the sorcerer spell list, so you would either need to take a level in wizard to cast it, or use a ring of spell storing or ioun stone of reserve to have someone else cast the spell for you. Find familiar allows you to see through your familiar's eyes:

While your familiar is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. Additionally, as an action, you can see through your familiar's eyes and hear what it hears until the start of your next turn, gaining the benefits of any special senses that the familiar has. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses.

Another option, assuming you could get hold of one, would be a gem of seeing which gives you truesight for a short time. Your character can eventually get the true seeing spell as well.
