Why An Audiologist?

A fellow of the American Academy of Audiology, Dr. Karen Major is an expert trained to diagnose, manage and treat hearing and balance problems in adults and children.

Dependent upon one another like the legs of a tripod, your body’s senses work together to help you maintain a sense of normalcy. When one leg of this tripod is disrupted, problems can arise with your health that can be misunderstood. For instance, balance issues sometimes have symptoms that lead a patient to think they have a vision shortcoming, when in reality the issue stems from a problem in their inner ear.

Recognizing this natural relationship between the senses of the eyes and ears, Dr. Farrell Tyson, a Board-Certified Ophthalmologist known and respected worldwide for his innovative foresight and his advancements of eye care practices, foundedCape Coral Audiology. Located within the Cape Coral Eye Center, patients can resolve their hearing and balance disorders, and their vision problems in the comfortable familiarity of one trusted location.

Hearing and balance problems are not to be taken lightly, and should be diagnosed only by someone who is a degreed professional, expertly schooled in the biology of your body’s personal sound and balance systems. Disorders of these most important senses, such as hearing loss and dizziness, can be caused by many factors, and there are unscrupulous salespeople who will tell you that all you need is a hearing aid. Indeed you may need a hearing aid, however, based on the uniqueness of your hearing loss or balance issues, you may need more than a hearing aid, or the treatment you need may be totally different.
