The Importance of Hearing
What is Hearing Impairment?

Conductive Hearing Loss:
Sound is not conducted to the inner ear from the outer or middle ear. This type of hearing loss is often temporary and can usually be treated medically.
Otosclerosis:
This is a type of conductive hearing loss. The tiny bones of the middle ear do not properly transmit sound from the eardrum to the inner ear
Sensorineural Hearing Loss:
The inner ear does not transmit sound properly to the brain. The tiny hair cells of the inner ear have been damaged due to age, noise or medication. They can no longer pick up sounds. This loss is permanent because the hair cells do not grow back.
Presbycusis:
The ability to hear high frequency sound deteriorates. It is the most common kind of sensorineural hearing loss and comes with aging.
Mixed Hearing Loss:
A combination of conductive loss and sensorineural loss.
