Deaf and Blind?

Question

What do you call someone who can't hear or see you? As if they are deaf and blind. What is a word describing both please?

Thanks

Too late to inquire I guess, but were you looking for a figurative expression or a noun for a person who is afflicted with both disabilities. — Mari-Lou A, Commented Jun 4, 2018 at 8:22
Normally it's "deaf and blind" or "deaf-blind". I've never seen a single word. — Hot Licks, Commented Oct 4, 2018 at 12:23
