Hello and hope you are doing well.

Generally when we test for hearing, we do so with tuning forks. We place on the bone behind the ear and then we place it in front of the ear. The dictum is that air conduction is better than bone conduction. If this is altered then it indicates a sensory hearing loss.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
