Hearing Loss | Johns Hopkins

Conditions We Treat: Hearing Loss

Hearing loss does not discriminate. It affects people of all ages and genders, and can be caused by several different factors. Hearing loss in adults can be caused by loud noises, heredity, injury, infection, illness, certain prescription drugs or circulatory problems such as high blood pressure. If you have hearing loss you may benefit from a hearing aid. When a hearing aid no longer provides adequate support you may consider a cochlear implant.
