👉 Deafness is a condition in which the ear or auditory system of an individual cannot properly hear sound. In other words, it refers to the inability to perceive or understand sounds that are normally produced by any kind of physical medium (such as speech, music, or even light). It can be caused by various factors such as deafness from birth, inherited hearing loss, or degenerative changes in the ear and auditory system over time.
