Bengal Rehabilitation Group Free Online Hearing Test 3 minutes

How well are you really hearing?

Most hearing loss creeps up so slowly that the people around you notice before you do. This free check gives you a real audiogram — the same chart an audiologist uses.

Does any of this sound familiar?

The signs are rarely “I’ve gone deaf”

They are small, ordinary frustrations — and they usually show up years before anyone calls it hearing loss.

The TV is louder than it used to be

Others in the room ask you to turn it down, and to you it sounds normal.

“Sorry, say that again?”

You hear that someone spoke, but the words arrive blurred — especially consonants.

Crowded rooms are exhausting

One-to-one is fine. A restaurant, a wedding or a family gathering is hard work.

What happens in the next three minutes

Three steps, nothing complicated

Put your earphones on

We play a tone in one ear and ask which side you heard it on, so we know your earphones are the right way round before anything is measured.

Answer one question, eight times

A quiet tone plays. We ask: did you hear it? If not, we make it a little louder and ask again — until you do. That is the whole test.

The same chart your audiologist uses, with each ear marked separately, plus a plain-language explanation of what it means for everyday conversation.

Why it is worth doing today

Hearing you have lost is easier to help early

Your brain slowly stops expecting the sounds it no longer receives. The sooner a loss is picked up, the better the outcome — and most people put it off for years.

  • Straining to follow conversation is tiring, and people quietly withdraw from the rooms where it is hardest.
  • Hearing loss often affects one ear more than the other, and that difference is not something you can judge for yourself.
  • If this check finds nothing, that is genuinely useful to know — and it takes three minutes.

Who is behind this test

Bengal Rehabilitation Group runs hospital-based hearing and speech clinics, staffed by qualified audiologists. Our hearing technology holds granted patents in India, the USA and Canada.

This online check is a screening — a way of deciding whether a proper test is worth your time. The full assessment, in a sound-treated room with calibrated equipment, takes about twenty minutes.

Ready? You will need earphones and a quiet minute.

Nothing is sent anywhere. Your audiogram appears on this screen as soon as you finish.

Completely free No sign-up Screening, not a diagnosis

Before we begin

Let’s set your device up

A minute here is what makes the result worth having.

  • 1Put both earphones inLeft one in your left ear, right in your right. We check this below — it matters more than you would think.
  • 2Turn your volume well up, then leave it aloneThe test plays tones near the edge of hearing, so a quiet device can make a normal ear look deaf. We do not guess — step 1 below plays a tone and you tell us how loud it really is, which sets the test to your device. Once that is done, do not change the volume again.
  • 3Find somewhere quiet and silence notificationsBackground noise makes a quiet tone impossible to judge, and a message arriving mid-tone costs you that pitch.
1 First, let's match the test to your device

Every laptop and phone plays at a different loudness, so we set the test against yours. Put your volume up high, press play, and tell us how loud the tone sounds. Adjust until it is about as loud as someone talking to you in the same room.

2 Are your earphones the right way round?

Press play. A tone will sound in one ear only.

We’ll start with your left ear

What this means for you

    Please read this before acting on the chart above. Every number here comes from your own answers given on your own device. A web page cannot know which earphones you used or how quiet your room was, and the loudness scale was set from your own judgement of the calibration tone at the start — so these levels are a reasoned estimate, not a calibrated measurement. This is a screening. It cannot diagnose hearing loss, it cannot tell you the cause, and it does not replace a physical examination by a qualified audiologist using calibrated equipment in a sound-treated room.
