Hearing Tests in Greenbrae
If you suspect that you need a hearing aid, the first step is to receive a hearing test. We can administer a hearing test and we will also take a case history to determine how hearing loss impacts your day-to-day life. After a discussion with you to see how hearing loss is affecting you, we will perform a series of hearing tests, including:
- Otoscopy - A visual examination of your ears and ear canals, looking for debris, earwax buildup, inflammation, and infection.
- Pure Tone Audiometry – A behavioral test that is used to gauge hearing sensitivity, providing us with an indication of the softest sound that’s audible to you.
- Speech Audiometry – A measure of your ability to comprehend speech.
- Tympanometry – This hearing test uses varying air pressures to measure the condition of the middle ear as well as the mobility of the eardrum and the conduction bones.
- Acoustic Reflexes – When your ears are stimulated by sounds, there is an involuntary muscle contraction in the middle ear. This hearing test measures how effective your acoustic reflexes are.
- Otoacoustic Emission – When your inner ear is damaged, they tend to disappear. There are two types: spontaneous and evoked.
