Hearing aids for profound hearing loss What is severe or profound hearing loss? According to WHO, if the quietest sound you can hear with your better ear is between 60 and 80 decibels, your loss is severe. It will be at least 80 decibels if your loss is profound. so that someone who can’t hear a sound less than 90 decibels would be considered to have a profound loss.    With either definition, if you have profound hearing loss, you won’t hear most everyday sounds without amplification. You might catch a 100-decibel ambulance siren if your car window is open—but not someone calling you from behind. Ordinary conversation tends to be 60 decibels. Profound hearing loss usually stems from a birth defect or an illness or injury, not from age. Many people in this group read lips or use sign language. people with severe or profound hearing loss can still benefit from hearing aids. Hearing aids for people with severe-to-profound hearing loss are known as power or super power hearing aids. They're a little larger than other aids, and usually worn behind-the-ear with a custom earmold.
