Going deaf, depending on the cause, can begin with ringing in the ears, or hearing a background noise that never quite goes away. It could be that sounds are muffled or that you miss parts of words in speech, often the same consonent sounds over and over, causing you to "hear words wrong" or "misunderstand" what's being said to you.

Sometimes it's difficult to hear conversation over other sounds in the room. It's as though the background noise is just as loud as what you're trying to hear. You may hear different frequencies at different volumes making conversation and television watching less enjoyable. People may constantly tell you that you didn't hear them, didn't understand them, have the television, radio, stereo up too loud for the comfort of others listening.

Going blind (losing vision) can begin with rings of light around objects, having difficulty reading print or street signs, having difficulty seeing at night or in a poorly lit room. Sometimes you might begin to lose peripheral vision so your field of vision is smaller... like you're looking through a tunnel and can't quite see as much to the left, right, up and down... but your central vision remains fairly unaffected. Sometimes there will be "pinholes" of darkness throughout your vision so that the whole visual field is affected, but if you move your head and adjust your line of sight you're able to see most everything.

You may have to hold books closer, you may have more severe eyestrain, get frequent headaches, avoid tasks that are sight-intensive like crafts or computer work. You may miss your turn while driving... miss the street you're looking for... have difficulty finding your way out of a mall or store if you're not familiar with the area.

There are also mental conditions that cause a fear of losing senses... and the same mental conditions can cause the symptomology of going deaf or blind... with specific testing being necessary to rule out actual disability and to sort of *trick* the brain back into allowing the patient to see and hear normally. This is often termed "hysterical blindness" but the patient is not necessarily hysterical.

If you are going blind, you are going to have symptoms much worse than blurriness due to your eyes changing with age. Loss of peripheral vision or narrowing of vision would be a sign. Deafness can be loss of frequencies, but almost everyone will experience this to a small degree with age. Only your eye doctor or hearing specialist can diagnose you. Yahoo Answers cannot. Hope this helps.

There are many symptoms. Sounds that are close by may seem muffled. Or they may seem choppy or broken, like a speaker with a bad connection. As for blindness, you may see a "dark spot" in your field of vision. Things may appear blurry or fuzzy. There may be a shimmering quality. Tunnel vision is also a strong indicator of impending blindness. Of course, the best indication that you are going blind is running into a light pole while walking down the street in broad day light.

What do you mean WERID?
First sign of blindness is not being able to see the key board for misspellings and where the location of the spell check icon is.

Deafness...mumbled sounds, hearing only in direction of sound...

Both of these need a professionals help for severity of symptoms and diagnosis.

Loss of hearing or eyesight. If you think you are going deaf, get your ears checked because it could just be a large build up of wax. If you have trouble seeing or experience blind spots in your vision, get it checked out.

If your critically asking the question, then the answer and your watching for anyone to assert it is adequate. Well spin the bottle, failed to feel they nonetheless played that sport. If it can be just a p.C., no longer quite a gigantic deal - making out, that's just gross. Why would you wish to have to kiss six guys in a single night anyway, my bet is w/spin the bottle they all weren't scorching either. My advice - do not play the sport.

in case your heavily asking the question, then you comprehend the answer and your searching for someone to say it truly is okay. nicely spin the bottle, did not imagine they nevertheless performed that sport. If it truly is only a %., no longer somewhat a large deal - making out, it truly is purely gross. Why would you want to kiss six adult males in a unmarried nighttime besides, my wager is w/spin the bottle all of them weren't warm both. My suggestion - do not play the game.

blindness is caused by loss of sight.
deafness is caused by loss of hearing.
having trouble hearing in the dark would be what you should look for.
