Thinking about all the weird things that Toph has done as a blind child is a sure path to madness.

She can sense the earth. She can sense the rock on the table because it's earth.

Well Toph probably sees light as well. I know a blind person that could see light, so that is probably a custom for most blind people. Common Sense also plays a part in this as well. Senses of the Earth as the others said. Toph's vision is a confusing one, but once we find out how she works, it will be just rewarding.

Shouldn't this be in spoilers? Or maybe wait until after that episode comes out officially?

No she doesn't, blind people can't see light(and I don't mean legally blind people, I mean people who's eyes are completely useless). Unless light all the sudden was something you can feel/hear/taste/smell/earthbend there is no way Toph can know it's there

Well, you can feel light. We tend to call it heat though.
But as far as I remember, she can't for instance, see on Appa. She's completely blind. It seems so, since she's always shown to be very restless when flying. It'd be why she doesn't like it, since it causes her to be completely blind.

Actually im just asking if she can see on non-earth places.

That would be a no then.
It's been demonstrated. For instance, the ice in the serpent's pass.

She said she sensed vibrations, which is why her vision was fuzzy in the desert.
Please remember to keep spoilery discussions in the Spoiler Board.

I think she can also see if there's enough vibration on the object.

I think she has a keen sense of hearing as well, like echo-location, only way she she dodge projectile...She's basically a female daredevil.

Wow, I just had a weird idea... If Toph is so sensitive that she can feel ants walking on the ground, maybe (given her last line in 'The Avatar and the Firelord') she is sensitive enough to feel the vibrations of a past life?
