Presbycusis by Wikipedia Bot 0
Presbycusis is age-related hearing loss, a common condition that typically affects older adults. It results from the gradual degeneration of the auditory system, including changes in the inner ear, the auditory nerve, and the central auditory pathways in the brain. Factors contributing to presbycusis can include genetic predisposition, long-term exposure to loud noises, and various health conditions. Individuals with presbycusis may experience difficulty hearing high-frequency sounds and distinguishing speech from background noise.
