Classification

These categories may be overlapping. Deafness or hearing impairment may be:

  • Unilateral – loss of hearing in one ear only
  • Pre-lingual – deafness at birth or deafness acquired before language is learned
  • Peri-lingual deafness|Peri-lingual – deafness acquired while in the midst of learning a first language
  • Post-lingual – acquired after a language has been learned
  • Partial loss of hearing|Partial – limited hearing loss
  • Progressive hearing loss|Progressive – hearing loss which increases over time
  • Profound – complete or near-complete inability to hear
  • Tone deaf – inability to distinguish between relative pitch (in music)
  • Tinnitus – hearing damage characterized by a high pitched ringing in the ears which drowns out other sounds

Age of onset is also a significant factor.
