BERA is considered a standard diagnostic tool for hearing loss. It needs to be correlated with examination of ear and other tests. After confirming the diagnosis after evaluation if the same degree of hearing loss is identified, your daughter will require hearing rehabilitation- surgical or non surgical.
Next Steps
Kindly meet ENT Clinic Focus Diagnostic Centre HSR layout to get evaluated and treated by Neurootologist and ENT Consultant.
