Hearing Tests
Hearing Testing and Evaluations
Hearing tests are a great choice, even if it is only as a precaution. Many individuals neglect the severity of their symptoms and allow it to get worse. A hearing test will prioritize accuracy so that you can get immediate help with a treatment plan.
Participation in a diagnostic audiologic evaluation is unique for every individual. Several relevant tests determine the severity of hearing loss in one or both ears. The most common tests suggested for the evaluation are tympanometry, otoacoustic emissions, and pure-tone testing.

The evaluation tests hearing and speech to determine readiness for the procedure. After surgery, the mapping process optimizes the device for full usage.
