Imagine missing the laughter of your grandchildren, struggling to follow conversations at dinner, or turning up the TV so loud your partner gives you that look. Many people brush those moments off, but hearing loss is not just about trouble hearing. It is a signal that your life may soon be missing more than sounds.
Hearing loss often occurs gradually over time as part of the aging process, but it may also be caused by loud noise, trauma, medications or disease. Tinnitus is the perception of noise that is not generated by an external source, such as ringing in the ear, hissing, buzzing, rushing or roaring sounds in the ear.
1 in 5 Canadians Do Not Realize Their Hearing Is Fading
Around 60% of Canadians aged 19 to 79 report a hearing health issue (hearing loss, tinnitus, or both)¹
Many wait 7 years or more to seek help after noticing a problem¹
