Introduction
Audiometry is a comprehensive hearing test used to evaluate how well a person hears sounds at different pitches and volumes, as well as how clearly they understand speech.
It is a fundamental diagnostic tool for identifying hearing loss, determining its type and severity, and guiding appropriate treatment or rehabilitation.
Audiometry is essential for patients experiencing hearing difficulties, tinnitus, balance problems, recurrent ear infections, or before and after ear surgery.
