Are you asking about congenital deaf-blindness? Losses of either sense later in life?

Azubuike Ezenwoke

@Kym Meyer: More like from birth, yes congenital.

You might want to contact the (US) National Center of Deaf-Blindness and Helen Keller National Center (I was a teacher there almost 30 years ago). They might be able to direct you to current researchers in the field.

James K. Ebajemito

Some relevant papers attached.

@ Kym Meyer: Is there a specific person you may wish to recommend I speak with based on your contacts at the center?

You may want to watch this recent webinar and contact this presenter https://nationaldb.org/library/page/2671

Unfortunately, the people I knew at the centers have all left so I don't have any names for you. But contact the National Center on Deaf Blindness - they'll have access to all the latest research https://nationaldb.org/

The brain is 'plastic ' so the neurons will connect to different pathways that will compensate for a lack in another area. Perhaps more connections will be in the temporal lobe instead of occipital lobe
