B & W Handbook 8. Hearing was created by Little Jim
Can you help me?
In the B&W Handbook
item 8. Hearing.
Completing questionnaire
Paragraph-
Can you hear?
It states that Atos are told that this will only apply in exceptional cases e g with a binaural hearing threshold above 90db
Can you please tell me what this means?
On my hearing chart my ears are between 90db and 110db
Thanks

Can I first ask you to check that you are using the current version of the ESA guides dated 11/11, as the test you are referring to should be "7. Other People Communicating With You".
Binaural refers to both ears, 90db refers to the "loudness" of a sound, 110db is louder than 90db.

Thanks Gordon
It is question 7 on ESA form.I have down loaded 8. Hearing from B&W Handbook. Did not realise that it had been updated.
I still don't understand why over90db is an Exceptional case?
