Noise Induced-Hearing Loss
For many Americans, hearing loss is an incredibly trying and saddening disorder to live with. When the hearing loss was caused by exposure to very loud noises that you had no control over, the frustration is likely all the more severe.
The inner ear has sensitive structures called hair cells that convert sound energy into electrical signals that travel back to the brain and allow us to decipher sounds. But these hair cells can be easily damaged from exposure to harmful sounds.

Facts about Noise Induced Hearing Loss
The following are some basic guidelines about noise-induced hearing loss:
- Noise induced hearing loss can occur from a one-time exposure to a very loud noise or it can occur over time from consistent exposure to moderately loud noises.
- Noise induced hearing loss often occurs due to occupations that require employees to work around loud machinery. Employers are responsible for providing hearing protection equipment to help combat these noises so employees do not experience hearing loss.
Noise induced hearing loss is a preventable disorder that often occurs as a result of another person or establishment�s negligence.
