Deafblind individuals can use a variety of methods to communicate (picture-symbols, object-symbols, braille, spoken word, etc.) based on their residual hearing and vision, cause of disability, educational background, and personal preferences. In fact, Pro-Tactile American Sign Language was developed by individuals who are deafblind!
