AB A  75-year-old  man  presents  to  your  office  for  a  routine  office  visit.  During  the  visit,  you  inquire  about  hearing  loss.  He  wasn't  planning  on  discussing  this  but  reports  that  he  has  trouble  understating  the  television  or  when  someone  speaks  in  a  whisper;  his  family  is  concerned  that  he  doesn't  hear  as  well  as  he  used  to.  He  hasn't  been  attending  social  events  or  family  gatherings  recently  because  he  feels  embarrassed  having  to  ask  people  to  repeat  words  or  phrases.
