singlesidedhearing.com Editor selects newly approved FDA surgery - Bone Anchored Hearing Aid - BAHA, to cure hearing loss.
Chicago, IL September 10, 2004 — The estimated demographic figure has ranged from 22 million deaf and hard of hearing to as high as 34 million deaf and hard of hearing. Of these, only a few million are considered “deaf” and the remainder are hard of hearing. Further complicating the statistics is the fact that some “deaf” people may actually be hard of hearing, and some “hard of hearing” people may actually be deaf.
While most people with hearing loss are older folks who have lost hearing with age, approximately 12 out of every 1,000 persons with hearing impairment is under 18 years of age, based on the most recently available NCHS statistics. That means that the chances are excellent that at least one student in your child’s school will have a hearing loss. - There is technology to help, thus the launch of singlesidedhearing.com
The author himself has endured many surgeries and researched even more, even providing his actual audiograms and operative photographs along with commentary.
