Hearing loss is a condition that usually is seen as one advances in age. During this time, there are also other medical expenses that crop up and the last thing we would want those with a hearing loss to feel is helpless. The Australian Government has always strived to provide compensations and services to pensioners by way of which dealing with any medical expenses and conditions is not as much a burden financially.

Why does hearing loss occur as age advances?

As a person advances in age, the ears begin to lose their sensitivity to sound and thus age-related hearing loss is seen. Also known as Presbycusis, this condition makes it difficult for people with it to hear what is being spoken, tough to distinguish between noise and speech.

The inner ear comprises nerves that have hair cells that are responsible for the sound being transmitted. Damage of these hair cells hampers the transmission of electrical signals to the brain and sound cannot be perceived.
