Balance disorders may or may not be
related to hearing problems, but the fact is that
over 28 million Americans suffer from hearing loss. Proper
testing, prescription, and fitting of an appropriate hearing
aid can compensate in full or part for these losses in many
patients.
There are three types of hearing loss:
1.
Conductive, which occurs when sound waves are prevented from
reaching the inner ear.
2. Sensorineural (nerve), which occurs when the auditory
nerve or hair cells in the inner ear are damaged.
3. Mixed, which is a combination of conductive and
senorineural loss.
Conductive hearing loss can often be corrected with
surgery or medical treatment. Sensorineural loss usually
cannot be reversed.
