Sensorineural Hearing Loss

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Sensorineural hearing loss results from damage to hair cells or the auditory nerve.

Show

Years of loud noise exposure destroy high-frequency hair cells first, and speech becomes hard to follow in crowds.

Watch for

Amplification does not repair sensorineural loss. Louder input reaches receptors that are no longer there.
