Noise exposure is the second leading cause of hearing loss after age-related hearing loss.
In my 16 years of working as an audiologist, I have fit hundreds of people with hearing aids due to their noise-induced hearing loss.
While these individuals are very appreciative of the benefits their hearing aids provide, each one of them wishes they had done a better job of protecting their ears from harmful noises when they were younger.
