🔊 What Do Hearing Loss Levels Really Mean?
“Mild,” “moderate,” and “severe” hearing loss describe how loud a sound must be before you can hear it — but they don’t automatically tell you which hearing aid you need.
Quick breakdown:
• Mild: Soft speech and whispers are hard to hear
• Moderate: Conversations become challenging
• Severe: Most everyday sounds are difficult without help
• Profound: Very few sounds are audible
Every ear is unique. Two people with the same degree of hearing loss can need completely different technology. That’s why a hearing‑care professional looks at your full hearing profile, not just the number on your audiogram.
