Deafness

Deafness is the complete loss of the ability to hear from one or both ears. Deafness may be inherited, or caused by complications at birth, certain infectious diseases, such as meningitis, use of ototoxic drugs, and exposure to excessive noise. Around half of all deafness and hearing impairment can be prevented.
