Hearing
Loss
When it Fades |
 |
| Hearing loss can interfere with the quality of your life, restricting
your ability to interact with others, causing misunderstandings
and fatigue, heightening stress and filtering out the myriad of
sound experiences that give you pleasure and meaning to life. And
not incidentally, hearing loss can be a safety issue. What happens
when you don’t hear the smoke detector? |
| Yet most people hesitate
to act when it comes to treating a hearing loss. Part of the problem
is that onset is gradual (and virtually invisible). In fact, it
can take years for hearing loss to develop. Part of the problem
is denial. Hearing loss may be a natural part of the aging process,
but few of us want to admit to growing older. |
| But perhaps
the biggest problem is how we view hearing loss, both as a culture
and as individuals.
Hearing loss has always carried something of a stigma in comparison
to failing eyesight, for example – and as a society, we even
tackle hair loss or impotence before hearing loss. |
