Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vaccinations for her daughter can prevent sensory impairments such as hearing loss caused by meningitis or rubella, which can both be prevented with routine childhood vaccinations. Regular screening for diabetes, annual eye exams for her and her husband, and screening for mumps before another pregnancy may be important for overall health but are not specifically related to the prevention of sensory impairment in infants.
