Vestibular hyperacusis
The word hyperacusis, generally referring to cochlear hyperacusis, means an over-sensitivity or intolerance for typically encountered sounds every day, such as the refrigerator running. However, vestibular hyperacusis is equally disabling for the lives it affects, albeit in different ways. Dr. Marsha Johnson, an audiologist in Oregon, was the first to widely publicize vestibular hyperacusis in her many articles. On October 25th 2010, the audiologist Dr. Teddy Caramoan Cheng presented a selected number of studies relating to Vestibular Hyperacusis at the (UK's first Hyperacusis Seminar ) held at the Royal Surrey County Hospital, Audiology Department. The (Vestibular Hyperacusis presentation ) explored the anatomical, physiological, neurotological, audiological, ototoxicity-related, vestibulopathic, and presbyacusic evidence towards creating a ''Vestibular Hyperacusis'' model.
==Definition==
Vestibular hyperacusis is a mix-up between the brain's maintenance of upright balance and the sense of hearing. Instead of perceiving sounds as intolerable, the brain perceives them as movement sensations, disturbance to postural balance and/or visual focus (fixation). It is different from cochlear hyperacusis in that many people with vestibular hyperacusis can handle normal sounds just fine, but certain pitches and sounds that have higher than 85 decibels may trigger these sensations. People who have vestibular hyperacusis rarely have tinnitus co-morbidly, while as many as 86% of all CH sufferers have tinnitus.
