presbycusis - loss of hearing due to aging
Definition for presbycusis
Presbycusis, or age-related hearing loss, is the cumulative effect of aging on hearing.
Hearing loss usually begins gradually after the age of sixty, and is usually found more often in men than women.
more
Presbycusis, or age-related hearing loss, is the cumulative effect of aging on hearing.
Hearing loss usually begins gradually after the age of sixty, and is usually found more often in men than women. This can be miscontributed to men having a greater exposure to environmental noise. However, exposure to environmental noise can lead to Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), a hearing issue that is separate from presbycusis.
