These are the ones I know of at the moment:

Casio fx-9860GII, fx-9860G Slim (Is the original fx-9860G backlit?)
Casio Prizm
TI Nspire (Assorted models are color and/or backlit)
TI-84 C and CE
HP Prime

And of course an assortment of various computing devices with spreadsheet programs, for cases where said spreadsheet is fully-featured enough for the task at hand. What else am I missing?

One idea: If there is no lighting and you don't want any lighting, have you considered sound output? Synthesised speech? Such devices might also have a more tactile key board.

I don't know of any specific products.
I imagine the Royal National Institute for the Blind would have or know of a a simple 4-function calculator, or a laptop could offer full speech synthesis. There is even a graphic calculator:
http://www.orbitresearch.com/orion-ti-84_details.php is a talking version of the TI84.
