Nearly one-third of the population, who are above 60, faces issues related to hearing. There are tiny hair cells inside the ear, whose function is to help us hear. The sound waves are picked up by these hair cells. Due to aging, these hair cells get damaged or start to die. Hearing loss caused due to this condition is permanent as hair cells do not grow again. Various other conditions can cause age-related hearing problems. These include change in the structure of the ear or impairment in auditory nerves.
