Identifying hearing loss.

Hearing loss can impact people at any age and may be caused by a number of factors. Since our hearing changes slowly as we age, it's not uncommon for family and friends to spot some of the early signs of hearing loss before you do.

• You often ask people to repeat themselves

• Following along with conversations in a group is difficult

• Other’s sounds are muffled or people seem to mumble

• It’s hard to distinguish sounds in noisy places like shopping centres

• Friends and family often tell you that you turn the TV or radio up much too loud

• You sometimes miss doorbells or ringing phones

• There’s a constant buzzing or ringing sound in your ears

• Loud noises cause you more discomfort than before

  If any of the above sounds familiar, then a quick and easy hearing check is the first step. Our free, easy and quick online hearing test is below.
