Vision problems are more common among deaf people than among the general population. Eight percent of the students in schools and programs for deaf children can be expected to have vision problems. We sent questionnaires to institutions and programs for deaf children, requesting information about the extent of vision problems among their students and about their teachers' levels of preparation in the area of vision impairment. Responses were received from 490 teachers. The data confirm that significant numbers of deaf students also have vision problems, and that teachers do not receive adequate training and information to meet the needs of this population.
视力问题在聋人当中比在普通人群中更为常见。预计在聋儿学校和项目中有8%的学生存在视力问题。我们向聋儿机构和项目发放了问卷，询问有关其学生视力问题的严重程度以及教师在视力障碍领域的准备水平的信息。收到了490名教师的回复。数据证实，相当数量的聋学生也存在视力问题，而且教师没有接受足够的培训和信息来满足这一群体的需求。
