You do have a high-frequency hearing loss, most likely due to that excessive noise exposure.

I was surprised. I was surprised. The levels of a lot of people is up to about 115 decibel and that is very dangerous for a couple of minutes and a lot of people are listening for a couple of hours.

I couldn't hear anything because my ears had been blasted, ... I had temporary hearing loss. The tent was full of smoke and dust. Of course Jim was screaming in pain and bleeding. And I reached for my vest to throw over him to protect him from what else was going to happen.

Unfortunately, the ear buds are even more likely to cause hearing loss than the muff-type earphones that were used on Walkman and portable CD players.

I was just at a loss for what I would be able to do. Tony, my husband, likes to fish and even competes in bass tournaments. Turning the lake into a pay lake seemed like something I could do, even with blurred and double vision.
