Title: Hearing Loss and Solution (1)


1
What is hearing loss?
  • Hearing is the important part of our life and we
    know that hearing is only the feeling. It does
    not exist physically. But there are some people
    that cant hear or hear mild. Problem in hearing
    the sound is called the Hearing loss.

How Hearing Work?
  • 1.Outer ear - Outer ear receives the waves from
    the outside environment and then transfers them
    into the middle ear through the ear canal.
  • 2.Middle ear - Middle ear receives these waves
    and these waves hit the eardrum in the middle
    ear. Eardrum starts to vibrate and generates the
    three tiny bones in your ear.
  • These bones are called hammer, anvil, stirrup .
  • 3.Inner ear - In the Inner ear the sound is
    generated with the help of these tiny bones.

Types Of Hearing Loss
  • Conductive Hearing Loss-
  • Conductive hearing loss occur due to the problem
    or disorder in the outer ear or the middle of the
    ear. Sound is prevented from the inner ear, but
    they speak distorted or faint. Sound is prevented
    from the inner ear, but they speak distorted or
    faint. There are some reasons behind the
    conductive hearing loss which include infection,
    fluid and wax bulid up in the middle ear, foreign
    objects in the ear canal or a preforated eardrum.
  • Sensorineural Hearing Loss-
  • Sensorineural hearing loss occurs when the nerves
    of the ear get damaged and unable to transfer the
    signals to the brain. In this type of Hearing
    loss sound is not clear to the patient, because
    the nerves of the inner ear and sensory cells got
    damaged over the time.

What is Hearing Aid
  • Basic digital hearing aids generally require the
    wearer to make some manual adjustments in certain
    listening environments such as turning a volume
    control up or down, or pushing a button to change
    listening programs. In contrast, a premium or
    more advanced hearing aid responds automatically
    to changes in the listeners environment, making
    changes based on the signals being detected by
    the hearing aid.

    bespoke, these fit discreetly inside the ear
    canal.

Hearing Test
  • Hearing well is something we can take for
    granted. For most, any loss is gradual and we
    know that sometimes taking the first step to
    understand if theres been a change in how well
    youre hearing can feel daunting. So, to help
    make those first steps as easy as possible, weve
    put together a quick 3 minute online check.
  • The simple, step-by-step check will first ask you
    how well youre hearing at low, mid and high
    level frequencies, this will help us to
    understand your hearing threshold for each tone.

Hearing Aid Care
  • Here are some care and safety guidelines to make
    sure your hearing aids work their best for many
    years to come.
  • Turn off your hearing aid before you go to bed.
    This will avoid unnecessary battery drain when
    youre not wearing your hearing aids.
  • Do not try to lubricate hearing aid parts.
  • Keep your hearing aids out of the reach of
    children and pets.
  • Never immerse your hearing aids in water, or wear
    them while in a sauna, showering, bathing, or
    swimming. Protect your hearing aids from rain, as
    well.
