Abstract
Tinnitus is a symptom that can have a variety of causes and is not considered to be a disease. Tinnitus is categorized according to its psychoacoustic characteristics such as pitch and loudness, which pertain to the auditory domain and according to its relationship with distress which relates to the psychological domain (Hebert & Fournier, 2017). The purpose of the present study is to analyse a self-assessment on quality of life in patients with tinnitus. A total of 30 participants selected on a random basis in the age range of 40 to 70 years including males and females. A set of 20 closed set (yes/no) questions were prepared and used. Quality of life in tinnitus patients plays an important role in their life. A transcendence level of intervention strategies acts as an evidence of success.
