About 486 million people worldwide are affected by hearing loss, and 38 million out of the entire affected population are children.

According to statistics about 900 million people will be suffering from hearing loss by 2050.

Some of the common causes of hearing loss include aging, injury, genetic, birth complications, drug use, exposure to excessive noise, infectious diseases and so on.

However, 60% of childhood hearing loss occurs because it was not prevented. Also, Approximately 1.1 billion young people worldwide are at the risk of hearing loss because of exposure to noise, especially noise from recreational centers. Hearing loss not addressed costs the world about US$150 billion annually.
