The diagnostic procedure used to measure the patient's hearing loss are as follows:
1. Physical examination that includes examining any earwax or inflammation due to an infection.
2. Tuning Fork Test: This test is done to detect hearing loss by strucking a tuning fork that produces sound.
3. Audiology Hearing Test: It is also known as Audiometer test. In this test the Audiologist presents a variable range of sound to detect the hearing loss.
