If you have trouble hearing, you are not alone. Hearing loss is the number one sensory deficit globally. A study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine reported that 20% of Americans age 12 and older experience hearing loss severe enough to hinder communications. At age 65, one out of three people has a hearing loss and it is becoming increasingly common among younger Americans.
