What type of deafness will she likely experience as she gets older?

As she gets older, she will likely experience age-related hearing loss, known as presbycusis. This type of deafness typically affects high-frequency sounds first and is due to a combination of genetic factors, exposure to noise, and changes in the inner ear structures. Additionally, she may also experience conductive hearing loss if there are issues with the outer or middle ear. Regular hearing assessments can help monitor any changes in her hearing ability.
