Conquer Silence. Restore Hearing
Description
More than 31.5 million Americans have some degree of hearing loss, and an estimated three out of every 1,000 children in the United States may be born with hearing loss. Whether it's present at birth, or happens suddenly or gradually over time, hearing loss can leave a person feeling isolated from friends and family. Some hearing loss can be treated with traditional therapies like hearing aids, while other degrees of hearing loss may require more advanced treatments. This program examines some of the latest treatments to help people get their hearing back. It features interviews with patients who have lived with hearing loss and shows how their lives have changed for the better since they were able to treat their condition.
