What is Sensorineural Hearing Loss? - Ear Problems

Doctor of Audiology, Clifford R. Olson, from Applied Hearing Solutions in Anthem Arizona, discusses what the most common type of hearing loss is, what causes it, and what your treatment options are. Website: https://www.DrCliffAuD.com Clinic Website: https://www.AppliedHearingAZ.com Over 90% of hearing losses are Sensorineural. Hearing loss can occur in 3 different areas of the ear. The outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear. Sensorineural hearing losses involve the inner ear. More specifically, the cochlea and the Auditory nerve. When Outer hair cells die, your best treatment option is usually hearing aids. When Inner hair cells die, you may be a candidate for a cochlear implant. When you have a tumor on your auditory nerve, aka. Acoustic Neuroma, you may need a CROS device or a Bone Anchored Hearing Aid (BAHA). In some cases, you may need a brainstem implant if both auditory nerves have tumors. Always make sure to consult with an Audiologist to determine which type of hearing loss you have and what you should do about it.
