This started 4 yrs ago and each time my ears fill with fluid my hearing is greatly impaired. My eye sight started to go about same time and now 4 yrs later I cannot see without glasses. Now head aches and vomiting. Doc says he sees no fluid and cannot see a cause for my hearing loss. I am 45 yrs and looking at hearing aid for left ear. He ordered a MRI, Why?

It seems like a lot of people have vision loss and need glasses but I don’t see that many people with hearing loss.
How come vision loss is a lot more common?

Why does the dmv restrict vision loss but not hearing loss?

If a person wears glasses or contacts at all for seeing far the DMV restricts their license with a “corr. lenses” mark even if their prescription is very minor.
So why then do they not restrict those who wear hearing aids? In fact profoundly deaf people who don’t hear anything at all recieve no restrictions on their licenses either.
I’m wondering why.
P.S: I have nothing against Deaf people both my parents are Deaf. I’m just curious.
