Phillipa, this all seems like a case for linking up periodic eye and hearing tests given the importance of maintaining sensory stimuli as you get older, and avoiding or reducing the risks of dementia developing.

One dreads to think what state of hearing the Dre Beats headphone generation will have by the time they approach retirement?

The deeper issue is getting people to be more accountable for their health and wellbeing as they age. With longer life expectations the need to arrive at retirement in a fitter state is from all the evidence not being realised with pretty dire financial and infra-structure consequences for a UK society where the over 60s now outnumber the under 16s.
