As we are nearing the end of , we wanted to share a fact when it comes to DeafBlindness. DeafBlindness is a spectrum! Just like how blindness is a spectrum, someone with vision and auditory disabilities can have varying degrees! This means someone may have some usable vision, some usable hearing, or none at all! That's why we provide so many different output options with Oko from haptic to audio to visual feedback.
