Hearing loss is not being able to hear sound in one or both ears. Infants may lose all of their hearing or just part of it. Although it is not common, some infants may have some hearing loss at birth. Hearing loss can also develop in children who had normal hearing as infants. The loss can occur in one or both ears. It may be mild, moderate, severe, or profound. Profound hearing loss is what most people call deafness.
