Imagine hearing a constant ringing, buzzing, or hissing sound that no one else can hear. For millions of people, this is not imagination — it’s tinnitus, a condition that quietly affects their daily lives, sleep, concentration, and peace of mind. Despite its prevalence, tinnitus often remains misunderstood, underdiagnosed, and undertreated.
At Vernal Sounds, we believe that awareness is the first step toward relief. Our mission is to redefine how tinnitus is diagnosed and treated — through science, innovation, and empathy.
What Exactly Is Tinnitus?
Tinnitus is not a disease but a symptom — a perception of sound in the absence of any external source. Patients describe it in many ways: ringing, buzzing, humming, or even a whistling tone. It can affect one or both ears and vary in intensity from day to day.
Common causes include:
- Exposure to loud noises
- Age-related hearing loss
- Ear infections or blockages
- Certain medications
- Neurological or circulatory disorders
While tinnitus can affect anyone, its impact goes beyond hearing — it can lead to sleep disturbances, anxiety, irritability, and difficulty focusing.
Why Treating Tinnitus Has Been a Challenge
For decades, tinnitus treatment has been one of the most challenging areas in ENT practice. The main reasons include:
- Subjectivity of symptoms: There is no universal test to measure tinnitus precisely.
- Lack of structured therapy: Treatments vary widely — from hearing aids to counseling — with inconsistent results.
- Limited follow-up: Patients often receive short-term advice but no ongoing support.
- Psychological impact: Emotional stress worsens tinnitus, but mental health is rarely addressed alongside auditory care.
At Vernal Sounds, we recognized these challenges as opportunities — opportunities to create a structured, measurable, and patient-friendly approach.
Vernal Sounds: Bridging Science and Relief
Founded by Karnarogyam Pvt. Ltd., Vernal Sounds is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of tinnitus using neuromodulation and Brain-Retraining (BR) Technology. Our solution is designed to retrain how the brain interprets tinnitus signals, gradually reducing the perceived intensity and improving quality of life.
Our approach includes:
- Comprehensive diagnostics: Detailed assessment and tinnitus profiling for each patient.
- Personalized sound therapy: Tailored neuromodulation therapy that targets each individual’s tinnitus pattern.
- Structured follow-up: Weekly reviews to monitor improvement and share progress reports with the referring ENT specialist.
- Flexible access models: Patients can choose between a monthly rental or purchase plan, making treatment accessible and affordable.
This model ensures continuity of care, measurable progress, and seamless collaboration between patients, audiologists, and ENT doctors.
Proven Results from Clinical Trials
In 2023–24, Vernal Sounds conducted clinical trials involving 86 patients across multiple age groups. Results were highly encouraging:
- Average THI (Tinnitus Handicap Inventory) scores reduced from 47.42 to 9.71 — showing a significant drop in tinnitus distress.
- Average treatment duration: Just 1.5 months.
- Success rate: Over 90% of participants reported improvement in symptoms.
These results demonstrate that with the right blend of technology and follow-up care, tinnitus can be effectively managed — offering patients real relief and renewed confidence.
The Human Side of Innovation
Behind every success story is our dedicated team of audiologists and ENT experts, including renowned specialists like Dr. Nidhi Dhawan, who guide our clinical practices and ensure our therapies meet medical standards. Their insights and experience help us refine our approach and reach more patients across India.
At Vernal Sounds, we don’t just aim to treat tinnitus — we aim to transform lives.
A Sound of Hope
Tinnitus may not have a one-size-fits-all cure, but it certainly has a solution rooted in understanding, technology, and care. At Vernal Sounds, we are committed to ensuring that patients no longer have to “live with it,” but can instead live beyond it.
If you or someone you know experiences constant ringing or buzzing in the ears, don’t ignore it. Seek help. The path to silence — and peace — may be closer than you think.
