vision and hearing impairment

This entry examines the prevalence and consequences of concurrent loss of vision and hearing across the life span, including a discussion of the presentation and prevalence of this condition by age, issues involved in coping and adapting to this condition, behavioral risk factors for developing dual sensory loss in later life, and implications for future research and practice. The importance of these foci rests on the fact that sensory experience provides the avenues that connect the individual with his or her larger environment.
