A member asked:
Are there any conditions or diseases (preferably fatal), where either hearing or sight loss is one of the first symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A long list: There are many conditions that satisfy these criterion. Included are various strokes, brain tumors and aneurysms and metabolic conditions such as diabetes. There are a number of inherited conditions which might start as a visual problem such as ataxia telangiectasia. Toxic conditions such as methyl alcohol poisoning also can start with vision loss.
