Die visuele- en gehoorverlies kan varieer van geringe tot gevorderde of totale visuele verlies en geringe tot gevorderde of totale gehoorverlies. Hierdie verlies veroorsaak toenemende uitdagings wat betref kommunikasie, mobiliteit, toegang tot inligting en algemene dienste. Daar bestaan meer as honderd oorsake vir doofblindheid.<\/p>\n<p>Met geskikte ondersteunings- en opleidingsprogramme en die hulp van kundige mense en tegnologiese hulpmiddels kan die lewe van DoofBlinde mense aansienlik vergemaklik word. Individue beleef egter verskillende uitdagings wat die hoof gebied moet word ten einde so onafhanklik as moontlik te kan funksioneer.
