Three out of every four Australians over age 55 have some difficulty hearing. Could you be suffering in silence?

There are 4 degrees of hearing loss:

• Mild - unable to hear soft sounds, difficulty perceiving speech in noisy environments.
• Moderate - unable to hear soft and moderately loud sounds, considerable difficulty in perceiving speech, particularly with background noise.
• Severe - speakers must raise their voice. Group conversation is possible only with considerable effort.
• Profound - some loud sounds are audible but communication without a hearing device is impossible.
