A study of the demographics and hearing problems prevalent in Visakhapatnam, has led Amplifon to establish a state-of-the-art Clinic in Visakhapatnam. The prevalence of deafness in India is fairly significant. It is the second most common cause of disability. Approximately 63 million people (6.3%) in India suffer from significant auditory loss. While there have been no studies to indicate that more and more people are developing hearing problems, doctors say in recent times many youngsters have started complaining of noise pollution-related disorders. There is a need for International standards of hearing care solutions to be able to fight with the problem of hearing.
Speaking at the inauguration, Mr. Samit Verma, CEO & Market Director, Amplifon India said “Hearing loss is more common than anyone can think. One out of twelve (1/12) persons in India suffer from hearing loss. In fact, over 60% of people in their 60’s suffer from hearing loss and many would benefit from using a hearing care solution.
