Blind and deaf puppy.

I’m currently in the process of possibly adopting a puppy that is totally deaf and has some sight problems. The foster isn’t really sure what the puppy can see, they are still trying to figure this guy out also. They say he is also working through some separation anxiety, none of which is a huge issue for me, just waiting to see if his foster family thinks we would be a good fit. Anyway I told the fosters that I would do some more research to see what I could find out for myself and to possibly help them. What I’m wondering is how would we train him if he can’t hear us let alone see us. How do we help him with recall, sit,stay, potty training or even helping him overcome his separation anxiety. They think he can see a tiny bit so sign language isn’t totally off the table but are there other things we can do to help him more?
