Interesting statistics about the city of Blainville
The prevalence of deafness increases with age. In Blainville the population is approximately 56,863 inhabitants. According to Statistics Canada, 10% of the population suffers from hearing problems. It is therefore estimated that 10% of the population of Blainville suffers from hearing loss.
Untreated hearing loss increases the chances of suffering from anxiety, social isolation and increases the risk of depression. According to studies, deafness can also increase the risk of developing cognitive problems. On average, presbycusis (hearing loss associated with age) delays the onset of dementia by 5 to 10 years.
Indeed, with age we can have deafness which occurs gradually. This is presbycusis. Presbycusis is often characterized by difficulty hearing high-pitched sounds. People therefore have more difficulty in groups or they repeat words that are similar (Ten and six, thirteen and sixteen...).
Having a hearing test is therefore important to diagnose hearing loss as early as possible. The tests are done directly in a clinic near your region in Blainville.
