SENSORY CHANGES WITH AGING
Our senses play a central role in our
ability to gather information and to participate in social interactions.
Along with a variety of physiological changes that accompany the aging
process, changes in the sensory also occur. It should be noted that while
everyone will probably experience some of the changes discussed below,
the degree of change would vary from person to person. In addition, the
effects of the sensory changes on the individual's perceptions and social
interaction depend upon many factors, such as: 
- the specific sense affected
- the nature of the change
- the extent to which overcoming the changes can be accomplished either mentally or physically
