Deaf-blindness is a combined vision and hearing impairment that significantly affects communication, mobility, and access to information, regardless of whether each individual loss is total or partial. NDIS recognises deaf-blindness as a disability requiring highly specialised supports including interveners, orientation and mobility training, and communication support. Participants with dual sensory impairment typically require customised plans that address both conditions together.
