Ever wonder what an Audiogram is?

An audiogram is a chart that plots the results of your hearing test. Remember the traditional ‘raise your hand when you hear the beep?’ test, well the results are a bit more complicated than just yes or no.

Learning how to interpret your audiogram will help understand your results better and may bring you some clarity on just how much hearing loss you are experiencing, in a visual way. Your audiogram results will help your audiologist determine the next steps in your hearing journey, such as which hearing aid is best for you.
