Sensorineural Hearing Loss is a type of hearing impairment that occurs when there is damage to the inner ear or the auditory nerve. This condition can result from various factors, including aging, exposure to loud noises, infections, or genetic predispositions. It often affects the ability to hear certain frequencies, making it difficult to understand speech, especially in noisy environments. Unlike conductive hearing loss, which involves problems in the outer or middle ear, sensorineural hearing loss is usually permanent. Treatment options may include hearing aids or cochlear implants, which can help improve hearing but do not restore it completely. Early diagnosis and intervention are essential for better outcomes.
