presbyacusis , auch: presbyacusia , auch: presbyacousia

Some studies have shown effectiveness in presbyacusis (age-related hearing loss).

Some people are more genetically predisposed to presbyacusis, while exposure to loud noise earlier in life also does a lot of damage.

Like presbyopia, presbyacusis also plateaus and deterioration tends to stop around the age of 70.

In this situation, the hearing loss is acquired through the ageing process, and is referred to as presbyacusis.

As with presbyacusis, spatial hearing loss varies with age.

The age-related decline in hearing is called presbyacusis and it's usually due to degeneration of the hearing nerves and organs of the inner ear.

Presbycusis (also spelt presbyacusis, from Greek presbys "elder" + akousis "hearing"), or age-related hearing loss, is the cumulative effect of aging on hearing.

Known as sensori neural deafness, it may have been called nerve deafness, perceptive deafness, inner ear deafness, presbyacusis - but by any name it is a frustrating type of hearing loss, at present not helped by surgery but undoubtedly helped by using sight together with listening tactics.
