Please consult an audiologist for proper diagnosis of hearing problem. Only BERA does not provide full picture. If all tests give similar results, then you should consider using hearing aids and with regular speech therapy. If hearing aids also doesn't work, you may have to go for cochlear implantation. But everything has to be done as quickly as possible as each and every day is important for your child's hearing, speech and brain development.
