Abstract
In this modern era of technology, it is common to see adolescents and young adults exposing themselves to loud noise or music through the use of earphones for a long period of time However the risky patterns of exposure if are not being monitored by themselves to the proper extent may lead to noised induced hearing loss in the latter part of their life. Noise-induced hearing loss is caused by longterm exposure to sounds that are either too loud or last too long. This kind of noise exposure can damage the sensory hair cells in the ear that allow us to hear. According to a large-scale survey and study by Gilliver et al of personal listening device users based on hearing health indicators suggested that several high-risk users may be experiencing early warning signs of hearing damage.
