The only possibility is deaf-mute, but I have to warn you that many object to these types of labels these days.

one word

A new one word is available to describe a person who is deaf and dumb and cannot explain what he sees.

I have merged your two threads because they ask the same question (although your second post did not included a question). Please do not make duplicate posts.
