Diagnosis of Deafblindness

 

Diagnosis of deafblindness is based on the loss or impairment of both hearing and sight. The level of deafblindness varies greatly from person to person, and a medical examination including sight and hearing tests are used determine the severity of deafblindness. Some people may have complete hearing loss but have limited vision and even be able to read with visual aids. Others may retain a level of both sight and hearing, while some may have complete loss of both senses.
