As people age, the number of people who experience significant age-related hearing and vision loss increases: almost 50% of people over 70 have significant hearing loss and about 12% have significant vision loss. By understanding the experience of hearing and vision loss, you can reduce frustration and isolation, promote greater independence and support better quality of life. 

This is why we developed the online training Supporting Seniors with Age-Related Hearing and Vision Loss. It covers:

• The causes of age-related hearing and vision loss.
• How significant hearing and vision loss impact people’s lives.
• Ways to effectively interact with and support a person with dual sensory loss.

We also provide resources through the Aging Eyes Initiative, in partnership with State Services for the Blind, to people over 55 who are not working.
