If you suspect you have hearing loss, it is essential to consult with a qualified audiologist who can conduct a comprehensive hearing evaluation. During the evaluation, the audiologist will measure your hearing thresholds and determine the severity of your hearing loss.
Here are some common tests used to identify the severity of hearing loss:
- Pure-tone audiometry: This test measures your ability to hear different pitches and volumes of sound.
- Speech audiometry: This test evaluates your ability to understand speech at different volumes.
- Tympanometry: This test assesses the movement of your eardrum and the function of your middle ear.
Based on the results of these tests, the audiologist will determine the degree of your hearing loss and recommend appropriate treatment options.
