Audiometry Tests are carried out in soundproof rooms. Your head will be fitted with earphones. You will be asked to sit quietly and refrain from speaking. The earbuds are linked to a machine that will emit tones, and varied speech sounds to your ears one at a time. When you hear a sound, the audiologist will ask you to raise your hand. You will be asked to raise your left hand if you hear a sound with your left ear and raise your right hand if you hear a sound with your right ear. The audiologist will record each tone at the lowest volume at which you could hear it.
Have all the information ready. The doctor will want to discuss your Hearing Problems in detail, including any issues or difficulty you might face on a daily basis with regards to aspects such as communication, confidence, how you feel about your hearing, as well as whether you have any other problems associated with Hearing Loss (e.g., tinnitus). It is critical to discuss openly the various situations in which you find it difficult to hear clearly (e.g., in noisy surroundings, in groups).
