Hearing Loss can be caused by a wide variety of things. Long term exposure to loud sounds such as chains saws is the most common cause of hearing loss. Viruses, illnesses, certain types of medication and traumatic injury can also cause hearing loss. There are also hereditary factors that can come into play so it is important to get a hearing test in Maine. 1 out of every 100,000 children are born with hearing loss. And a study showed that 15% of college students have a hearing loss by the time they graduate. Even animals can suffer from hearing loss. We have even built several Hearing Instruments for dogs! Hearing Loss – It’s not about age. Did you know that the number of people with Hearing Loss borders on epidemic levels? The latest study shows that: • 8% of people in their 20′s have enough hearing loss to warrant the use of hearing aids. • 17% of people in their 30′s have enough hearing loss to warrant the use of hearing aids. Individuals who have a hearing loss and do not use a hearing aid are: • 65% more likely to feel sad or depressed. • 71% more likely to feel worried, tense or anxious. • 22% less likely to participate in social activities • 38% less likely to participate in Senior Center Activities.
