He has sensory neural hearing loss. Hearing aid may help. Or you may go for cochlear implantation.

He has profound sensorineural deafness in Left Ear. This is not unfortunately curable!
However, as he has normal hearing in Right Ear, he should be okay with high gain hearing aid for the affected ear.
