Tinnitus Assessments

Commonly known as ear ringing, tinnitus is a hearing issue where individuals perceive sounds like buzzing, hissing, or humming that are not externally audible in the real world. It can vary in intensity, frequency, and location, affecting people of all ages and backgrounds.

At ONDC, we provide specialised tinnitus assessments to evaluate your condition and help develop effective management strategies.

In Australia, around one in three individuals have encountered tinnitus at some stage, with approximately one in six enduring persistent symptoms.

If you are referred to ONDC for a tinnitus assessment we will conduct a comprehensive hearing test where we will thoroughly examine the outer and inner ear. This is to check the health and functionality of the ear and rule out any other potential cause of the tinnitus.

Our Audiologists will assess your hearing, provide insights on your tinnitus, and create a personalised management strategy to help support you with your tinnitus.

While there is no known cure for tinnitus, treatment typically encompasses a variety of methods such as hearing aids, masking devices, self-management options and various sound therapy techniques.

Tinnitus masking devices are available for trial with no obligation to purchase.
