Why Is Hearing Loss Linked to Memory Loss?

Hearing loss can cause social withdrawal, leading to depression and isolation.

It increases cognitive load. Your brain has to work harder just to understand speech.

Studies show it may increase dementia risk by up to 5X in older adults.

Treating hearing loss can slow cognitive decline and improve overall brain function. Learn More About The Risks
