Introduction
Hearing loss evaluation is a comprehensive diagnostic process designed to identify the type, degree, and cause of hearing impairment.
Hearing loss may develop gradually or suddenly and can affect communication, work performance, emotional well-being, and quality of life.
Accurate evaluation is essential to determine whether hearing loss is temporary or permanent, and to guide appropriate medical, surgical, or rehabilitative treatment.
