There's also the choice of complying with the DDA. If a company has the
choice of employing someone with epilepsy that is controlled with medication
or someone with a sensory loss, they can choose the less inconvenient choice
and still comply with the DDA.

Yes but it's illegal now, for employers to refuse to employ people on
grounds of disability.
The problem is how does one show proof, of discrimination?
If 2 people applied for a job at say RNIB, one is blind, one is sighted.
If the sighted person gets the job, does that mean the blind person has been
discriminated against. Maybe, but not always.
I employ a male gardener.
So have i discriminated against females!
