Hearing loss is the third most common chronic condition in adults, after arthritis and heart disease. In America, approximately 40 million people suffer from hearing loss to some degree. There are several symptoms of hearing loss that will adversely affect a person’s daily life, such as tinnitus (ringing in the ears), feeling like everyone is mumbling and not hearing well against background noise.
Hearing loss has been linked to a higher risk of falling, psychological and social difficulties and increased risk to personal safety. Hearing testing can also reveal serious conditions needing further medical attention, like acoustic neuroma, otosclerosis, cholesteatoma, Meniere’s disease and more.
