HEARING LOSS DIAGNOSIS
Our hearing evaluations are thorough and designed to provide you with a complete understanding of your hearing needs. We use advanced diagnostic equipment and offer a range of hearing tests, including pure-tone audiometry and speech audiometry. A hearing exam may involve one or more of the following:
TYPES OF HEARING LOSS
Sensorineural Hearing Loss - the most common type involves a problem with the inner ear. Sensorineural hearing loss is generally treated with hearing aids.
Conductive Hearing Loss - Occurs when there are problems in the outer ear, ear canal, eardrum, or middle ear. Conductive hearing loss is often correctable with surgery or medications. Alternatively, and with more success, it may be treated with hearing aids.
Mixed Hearing Loss - A combination of both types. Treatment might involve medication, surgery, and/or hearing aids.
