Does that necessarily mean I will get rated for it if it is deemed to be service related? I have hearing test from sub school in my record that was submitted with claim. I separated in 1995 and have not worked in a loud environment or been subjected to loud noises since separation. I also have significant tinnitus. Hearing tests substantiated my tinnitus as well. I was on subs and believe the pressure and pressure changes along with various noises are to blame. Anyway, does having enough hearing loss to require the use of hearing aids necessarily mean I will be rated for hearing loss? I feel like I will probably get rated for tinnitus. Just not sure how significant hearing loss has to be before you get rated for it assuming it is deemed to be service related.
