| Abstract: | 302 subjects with normal hearing for their ages in the age group of 10 to 80 years were subjected to pure tone audiometry. First, steep reduction in hearing was observed in the age group between 40 to 49 years. Males were found to have better hearing acuity in lower frequencies and females in higher frequencies, in older age groups. Better hearing acuity was observed in upright as compared to supine posture. No relationship could be established between economic status of an individual and his hearing. |
