    Age-related hearing loss generally cannot be reversed medically. This is because the physiological changes occur at the level of tiny hair cells in the inner ear which experience permanent damage. Audiologists are specialised to treat permanent hearing loss with appropriate hearing solutions which may include use of hearing devices or assistive listening devices and counselling on strategies to deal with the effects of a permanent hearing loss. Audiologists at Vital Hearing will work with you to enhance your hearing and quality of life if you are diagnosed with a significant hearing loss.
