When left untreated, hearing loss can affect:<\/div>[vc_empty_space][vc_tta_tabs active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-chevron-circle-down” add_icon=”true” title=”Communication” tab_id=”1596214746181-25a2c1d2-b2a2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Adults with hearing loss have difficulty participating fully in conversations at work, home and in social situations. Children with hearing loss, especially those younger than six months,\u00a0have difficulty learning important language skills that normal hearing children learn by listening to language spoken by family members.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-chevron-circle-down” add_icon=”true” title=”Social interaction” tab_id=”1596214746182-3c3ec580-aeea”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Hearing loss progresses slowly and, over time, people who have it tend to begin withdrawing from social situations that prove too challenging. This could mean avoiding the happy hour after work with colleagues, cutting your family dinner short or skipping out on your weekly bridge game. All of these things together can lead to isolation and loneliness.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to a study by the\u00a0Better Hearing Institute, untreated hearing loss\u00a0affects productivity, performance and career success. When hardworking professionals feel the lack of confidence that can come from not being able to contribute during meetings, hear clearly the important instructions from the boss or understand all that was said on a phone conference, it can lead to feelings of insecurity. These feelings can prevent you from realizing your true potential on the job.<\/span><\/p>\n

Children with hearing loss may have trouble articulating their feelings, which makes communication frustrating for family members. Adults may feel they aren’t being heard and become isolated and depressed. Family members who have loved ones with untreated hearing loss say they sometimes experience feelings of frustration, annoyance and sadness. All of these put a strain on\u00a0family and romantic relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n
