Otoscopy: A visual examination of your ear canal and eardrum using an otoscope to check for wax blockage, infection, or structural issues.
Pure Tone Testing: You sit in a sound-treated booth wearing headphones. Tones are played at different frequencies and volumes. You press a button when you hear each tone.
Speech Testing: Words are played through headphones at different volumes to measure your speech understanding ability.
Results Discussion: Your audiologist explains the audiogram results, identifies the type and degree of hearing loss, and discusses next steps including hearing aid options if needed.

Understanding Your Audiogram Results

Hearing Level (dB)	Classification	What It Means	Treatment
0-25 dB	Normal	No difficulty hearing	No treatment needed
26-40 dB	Mild Loss	Difficulty hearing soft speech	Hearing aid may help
