Noise-induced hearing loss affects about 15 percent of Americans.

Some people may get noise-induced hearing loss from one very loud noise, such as an explosion, and others from prolonged exposure to loud noise over time.

Prolonged exposure to overly loud noise or brief exposure to an extremely loud noise may damage the inner ear, resulting in hearing loss – and the loss may be permanent.

In today’s modern world, noise seems to be everywhere, from washing machines to fireworks, and motorbikes to airplanes. But what happens when sounds are too loud or if we are exposed to them for too long?

Here’s a Better Hearing & Speech Month healthy hearing tip. “Bring earplugs to the movie theater! While Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires hearing protection in work environments of 85 dBA (about the level of a vacuum or lawn mower), there are no such regulations for movie theaters. Some movies can measure well above 85 dBA. Being exposed to those higher levels — even just for a couple of hours — could potentially impact hearing.” —Lisa Standaert, Au.D., Phonak Research Audiologist
