Check Your Hearing

Answer these questions to help see if you have a hearing loss

Do you have a hearing loss? It can be hard to be really sure. Because of the manner in which hearing loss normally occurs, it is often the case that the last person to know about it is the person who suffers with it. The following questions form a hearing self test. Simply answer yes or no to each question.

NB. This test is provided only as a guide and is in not intended to replace a hearing assessment using the correct audiological equipment. Due to recent events and a changing society, I am now able to carry out a full audiological hearing assessment in the comfort and convenience of your own home.

Answering yes to one or two questions doesn't mean you have hearing loss - answering yes to more than two could indicate that you have some hearing loss. Answering yes to five or more is likely to indicate that a hearing loss is present and you should seek to have your hearing assessed.
