Hearing Health

Learn about how hearing health impacts your overall health

According to the Hearing Loss Association of America, 48 million Americans live with hearing loss. While hearing loss is the third most prevalent chronic health condition, next to heart disease and arthritis, and affects two-thirds of all adults age 70 and over, only 20% of these adults seek help or receive treatment for their loss. This is often because hearing loss is painless and happens very gradually and is therefore undetectable.

This is why it is recommended that you get your hearing tested beginning at age 50. While it can happen at any age, the majority of cases occur in adults over the age of 50.

Communication & Relationships

Losing one’s hearing can be difficult, and it can be a significant stressor on relationships, marriages, and social or work activity. Many studies have shown that those who have even mild hearing loss may earn less and have a harder time in the workplace. Those with hearing loss also may begin to withdraw from social activities. This can have a negative impact on one’s physical, mental and cognitive health. The better you hear, the more active you may remain, making it easier and more enjoyable to maintain a healthy lifestyle and overall health.

Comorbidities

Health officials have recently discovered the correlation between hearing loss, hearing health, and other diseases. If left untreated, hearing loss can lead to a number of cognitive and mental health issues, including depression, loneliness, and anxiety.
