Abstract
This paper discusses the clinical profile of tinnitus patient where no hearing-loss is present. Tinnitus of this category can be named as non-deafness tinnitus or tinnitus without hearing loss. Ten to twenty percent of patients with tinnitus have no hearing-loss. Clinical characteristics (age, sex, timbre, pitch and loudness etc) of non-deafness tinnitus were more similar to that of tinnitus concurrent with a conductive hearing-loss than that of sensorineural hearing-loss. Nevertheless, the origin of non-deafness tinnitus can be labyrinthine or retro-labyrinthine.
