This document relates to:

Roper v. 3M Company, et al., 

Case No. 7:20-cv-02945-MCR-GRJ

MDL No. 3:19-md-2885

Judge M. Casey Rodgers

Magistrate Judge Gary R. Jones

First Amended Case-Specific Expert Report of Dr. Richard Tyler

1. Introduction

In preparation for this report, I reviewed and considered the relevant records, 

documents, and history of Plaintiff Shanika Roper. The documents I reviewed and 

relied upon in forming my opinions are contained on my Materials Considered List, 

attached as Exhibit A. Based on these documents, my training, experience, 

education, and examination of Plaintiff, I offer the following opinions to a 

reasonable degree of audiological and scientific certainty.

2. Summary of Opinions

a. Plaintiff has hearing damage, hyperacusis, tinnitus and related auditory 

injuries (“hearing damage”). In reliance upon the general causation 

opinions of Rich McKinley, Mark Packer, Christopher Spankovich (the 

“General Experts”), and my review of Defendant’s Flange Report, 

dated July 10, 2000; the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Command’s 

Law Enforcement Report, dated December 13, 2018; and the U.S. Air 

Force’s recall letter, dated July 30, 2019; and other documents (e.g. 

earplug adapter stem made of hard plastic Delrin was too short, too 

wide, and too stiff; the basal edges of the opposing end of CAEv2 

contacted the user’s outer ear [tragus, etc.] – thereby causing 

imperceptible loosening), the CAEv2 failed to provide an adequate fit, 

seal and/or continued seal/retention for a reasonable period of time for 

many users. These flaws and the resulting inadequate fit, seal and/or 

continued seal/retention and imperceptible loosening of the CAEv2 in 

Plaintiff while exposed to hazardous continuous and/or impulsive noise 

exposure during military service were the cause and/or substantial 
2

contributing factors in causing Ms. Jumanah to suffer hearing damage, 

including but not limited to: tinnitus and hyperacusis. 

b. Plaintiff’s hearing damage and related auditory injuries were directly 

and proximately caused by her use of the CAEv2 while exposed to 

noise.

c. If the CAEv2 had performed as intended, Plaintiff’s noise-related 

hearing damage, and related auditory injuries, would have been 

prevented. 

d. Plaintiff’s hearing damage and related auditory injuries are permanent 

and are likely to progress and place her at an increased risk of further 

harm.

e. Plaintiff’s hearing damage and related auditory injuries have a 

substantial negative impact on her quality of life. Tinnitus and 

hyperacusis impede socialization and can have a serious effect on one’s

quality of life.

f. In reliance upon the general causation opinions of the General Experts, 

and my knowledge and experience concerning hearing protection 

devices, I find there were safer alternative hearing protection devices 

available that could have significantly reduced or prevented Plaintiff’s

hearing damage and related injuries.

3. Qualifications

I am a full Professor, as well as the Director of Audiology, at The University 

of Iowa in the Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery. I have a 

joint appointment in the Department of Communications Sciences and Disorders. 

The Department of Otolaryngology is part of the University of Iowa’s medical 

school. In my role I teach medical students/otolaryngology residents about the 

science of Otolaryngology. I also provide oversight and direction to the 

Department’s research mission and mentorship for resident and faculty research. 

Throughout my academic career I have received numerous awards, appointments, 

and scholarships in the field of Audiology, which are outlined in my curriculum 

vitae (Exhibit B).

I hold a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Psychoacoustics from the University 

of Iowa., a Master of Science in Audiology from the University of Western Ontario, 

and a Bachelor of Science in Communication Disorders from the University of 

Western Ontario. Since 1985, I have held a Certificate of Clinical competence in 

Audiology from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Since 1986,

I have held a Certificate of Licensure for Audiology with the State of Iowa. 
3

Following the award of my Ph.D. in 1978, I served as a Staff Scientist 

Psychoacoustician/Audiologist on the Medical Research Council at the Institute of 

Hearing Research, in Nottingham, United Kingdom (1978-1980). In 1980, I became 

the Scientist-In-Charge of the Nottingham Clinical Outstation Medical Research 

Council at the Institute of Hearing Research in Nottingham, United Kingdom (1980-

1981). In 1981, I became an Assistant Professor and Director of Audiology at the 

University of Iowa in the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 

which is part of the Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology (1981-1984). 

In 1984 I was promoted to Associate Professor and continued in my role as the 

Director of Audiology at the University of Iowa in the Department of 

Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (1984-1987). In 1987, I became a Full 

Professor and continued in my role as the Director of Audiology at The University 

of Iowa in the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery.

In my role at the University of Iowa, I teach undergraduate and graduate level 

courses in audiology and otolaryngology on topics ranging from tinnitus and 

hyperacusis treatments, to cochlear implants tinnitus and implantable hearing aids.

In addition to my academic experience, I am a clinical audiologist and 

currently licensed to practice audiology in Iowa. I have served as a clinical 

audiologist for over 40 years. As a clinical audiologist I conduct diagnostic 

assessments to measure hearing loss, conduct differential diagnosis to determine the 

form of hearing loss, and counsel my patients regarding the dangers of noise 

exposure and the benefits of hearing protection. My duties also include measuring 

and counseling tinnitus and hyperacusis patients and providing sound therapy 

devices. In my clinical practice, I perform a comprehensive case history, and can 

perform otoscopy, measure the range and sensitivity of a patient’s sense of hearing 

using audiometry, as well as perform other objective measures to identify any lesions 

and perform differential diagnosis and recommend management strategies. 

I have also treated numerous military veterans during my career, diagnosing 

and treating many veterans with noise-induced hearing loss. These include veterans 

with exposure to impulse noise, blast exposure, and long-term noise exposure. Many 

of these veterans suffer from tinnitus. I offer specific treatments for their tinnitus and

hearing loss in each individual patient. I counsel veterans on the use of ear protection 

when exposed to loud noise. I also currently serve as a co-principal investigator on 

a VA grant to explore a drug treatment for a subtype of tinnitus. 

Over the past 40 years, I have been extensively involved with and held 

leadership positions in national societies that deal with hearing loss and tinnitus. I 

have been a member of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association 

(ASHA), American Academy of Audiology (AAA), American Auditory Society 
4

(AAS), American Tinnitus Association (ATA), British Tinnitus Association (BTA),

and the Association for Research in Otolaryngology (ARO).

I have served as Chair for 37 years of the Annual Conference on Management 

of the Tinnitus Patient. I also served as Chair for 5 years of the Scientific Advisory 

Committee of the American Tinnitus Association. In addition, I have served as Chair 

of the Resident Research Committee, Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck 

Surgery (1988-1993). 

I was invited by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies to 

participate in a meeting and preparation of a book entitled Noise and Military 

Service; Implications for Hearing Loss and Tinnitus (2006).

I adopt and incorporate the recitation of my education, training, experience, 

and background contained in my current curriculum vitae, attached as Exhibit B.

My current academic research focus is on tinnitus and hyperacusis. I have 

published articles on measuring hearing loss beyond the pure-tone thresholds. It has 

been known for decades that pure-tone threshold losses do not identify all of the 

physiological and psychoacoustical factors involved in hearing loss. Some people 

now call these measurements hidden hearing loss. One area of physiological 

measures not reflected in pure-tone threshold losses has recently been called 

cochlear Synaptopathy.

I have presented at more than 300 Conferences and Symposiums across the 

country and around the world on a wide array of audiology and otolaryngology 

topics. Some relevant publications include:

Finally, in my weekly clinic for tinnitus impaired patients, I routinely discuss 

and provide hearing protection. I work to help them with counseling.

For this matter, I am being compensated $195 per hour spent consulting, $295 

per hour spent in deposition, $395 per hour spent in court, and $650 per day spent 

traveling.

4. Background

a. Tinnitus

Sensorineural tinnitus involves the perception of a sound when there is no 

external source. It can be perceived in both ears or one ear. Noise exposure is the 

most common cause of tinnitus. It can sometimes be caused by medications or the 

aging process, typically over the age of 60 years. Tinnitus affects different people 

differently. It can be very debilitating. As there is no cure, some people even commit 

suicide because they have tinnitus. Areas I have identified as being affected include 

1) thoughts and emotions, 2) sleep, 3) concentration, and 4) hearing. It affects 

different people differently. Because there is no cure, people must ‘learn to live with 

it’. Most cannot, and most want a pill to make it go away. Tyler, R. S. & Baker, L. 

J. (1983). Difficulties experienced by tinnitus sufferers. Journal of Speech and 

Hearing Disorders, 48(2): 150-154; Tyler, R. S. (2012). Patient Preferences and 

Willingness to Pay for Tinnitus Treatment J. Am Acad. Audiol. 23, 115-125

b. Tinnitus, Depression, PTSD, and Anxiety

In my Psychological Model of tinnitus, I note it is important to distinguish 

between the 1) Tinnitus and the 2) Reactions to the tinnitus. If an individual is 

previously suffering from a disorder that included mental stress (such as depression, 

PTSD, and anxiety), this makes it even more difficult to deal with the tinnitus. This 

is very clear in my clinical practice.

In addition, hearing damage can result in missing spoken information and 

misunderstanding spoken information. It interferes with hearing in background noise 

and localizing where sound is coming from. This interferes with social interaction,

and can lead to depression, anxiety and insolation, impacting their overall quality of 

life, which I review in the following article. Tyler R, Perreau A, Mohr AM, Ji H, 

Mancini PC (2019). An Exploratory Step Toward Measuring the 'Meaning of Life' 

in Patients with Tinnitus and in Cochlear Implant Users. J Am Acad Audiol. 2019 

Sep 27. doi: 10.3766/jaaa.19022; Tyler, R. S. & Baker, L. J. (1983). Difficulties 
6

experienced by tinnitus sufferers. Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 48(2): 

150-154.

c. Tinnitus and Sleep

Sleep is one common issue for patients with tinnitus. Lack of good sleep 

impacts many daily life activities, and therefore quality of life. Sleeping is meant to 

occur in a quiet space. With the tinnitus, there is no quiet. Lack of sleep due to 

tinnitus can be very challenging and interfere with productivity and socialization. 

d. Hyperacusis 

Hyperacusis is when moderately intense sounds are very loud and sounds may

evoke a pain sensation. Other terms have been used in the literature, including 

hypersensitivity, misophonia, select-sound sensitivity, decreased sound tolerance, 

phonophobia. Examples of sounds reported include doors closing, dishes clanging 

together, and dogs barking. Tyler, R. S., Pienkowski, M., Roncancio, E. R., Jun, H. 

J., Brozoski, T., Dauman, N., Coelho, C. B., Andersson, G., Keiner, A. J., Cacace, 

A., Martin, N., & Moore, B. C. J. (2014). A Review of hyperacusis and future 

directions: Part I. Definitions and manifestations. Am J Audiol, 23(4):402-19.

PMID: 25104073; Pienkowski, M., Tyler, R. S., Roncancio, E. R., Jun, H. J.,

A. T. (2014). A review of hyperacusis and future directions: part II. Measurement, 

mechanisms, and treatment. Am. J. Audiol., 23(4), 420-436

e. Treatment of Tinnitus and Hyperacusis

There is no cure for tinnitus. Patients must learn to live with it. Tinnitus can 

interfere with thoughts and emotions, hearing, sleep, and concentration. Patients can 

receive counseling in these areas. There are wearable sound-therapy devices (some 

together with hearing aids), that produce some noise, such as waterfalls, that 

attempts to make the tinnitus less noticeable. This can be helpful but does not make 

the tinnitus go away. Patients still must learn to live with it. 

There is no cure for hyperacusis. Patients must learn to live with it. Hearing 

protection can be worn in everyday situations, but this then interferes with hearing, 

understanding speech and hearing warning sounds.

5. General Causation Opinions

In forming my opinion that, to a reasonable degree of audiological certainty,

defects in the CAEv2 were the direct and proximate cause and/or were a substantial 

contributing factor of, Plaintiff’s hearing damage and related auditory injuries, I rely 

upon the general causation opinions of the General Experts in their entirety. With 

the background of my education, training, and experience, I also reviewed and 
7

considered the Flange Report, CID Report, design drawings of the CAEv2, and other 

documents in forming my opinion that the CAEv2 is defective in that it does not 

adequately fit, seal, and maintain a continued seal sufficient to protect against 

hearing damage. Specifically, these defects include that: the CAEv2 was too short

for proper insertion; contained an opposing, non-inserted end with basal edges and 

material that contacted and/or deformed against the outer ear; contained a hard, stiff,

and excessively wide adapter stem component which failed to adequately 

accommodate the dynamic human ear canal; and, as a result, had a propensity to

imperceptibly loosening over excessively short duration. Based on the CID Report,

testimony of 3M employees and former employees, and other internal 3M 

documents, 3M did not provide this information to the military.

I have examined and inserted the CAEv2 earplugs into my ear canals, as well 

as many other hearing protection used by the military.

6. Plaintiff’s History & Background

As in my clinical practice and explained further below, I conducted a 

differential diagnosis of Plaintiff in arriving at my specific causation opinions. I 

considered and relied upon all of the below and everything contained on my 

Materials Considered List, Exhibit A. 

a. Military History and Noise Exposure

Ms. Roperserved in the military from 2001 to 2018. She reports military noise 

exposure to weapons and heavy vehicles.

b. Non-Military Noise Exposure

The only noise-producing devices and/or activities outside of Ms. Roper’s 

military service identified is listening to music and infrequently attending sporting 

events. This non-military noise exposure did not contribute to her tinnitus or 

hyperacusis.

c. Non-Military Occupations

Her non-military occupational history include employment at the following 

locations:

• Department of Veterans Affairs – Loan Technician

• Missile Defense Agency – HR Specialist

These jobs did not contribute to her tinnitus or hyperacusis.

d. Health History and Other Injuries

Plaintiff’s health records document numerous health conditions. It is

noted she had:
8

• Sleep Apnea

• Left and Right Ankle Tendonitis

• Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease 

• Chronic Constipation 

• Gallbladder Disorder

• Right and Left Foot Hallux Valgus

None of these medical conditions are causes of tinnitus or hyperacusis. However, 

the emotional impact of her tinnitus and hyperacusis might make it more difficult 

for her to deal with these conditions.

e. Medications

I have reviewed all medications contained within Plaintiff’s extensive 

records, including but not limited to:

• OxycodoneAcetaminophen

• Trazodone Hydrochloride

• Guaifenesin/

Pseudoephedrine 

Hydrochloride

• Escitalopram

• D-Methorphan

Hcl/Chlorpheniramine 

Maleate

Given these medications, her limited ingestion, and the timing of ingestion, I did not 

find these to bear any significance on Ms. Roper’s tinnitus or hyperacusis. 

f. Alcohol, Drug, Tobacco Use

Ms. Roper is not a problem drinker. She also does not have an extensive

history of smoking or drug use. Regardless, these are not known to cause tinnitus or 

hyperacusis.

g. Family History of Tinnitus or Hyperacusis

She reports no family history of tinnitus or hyperacusis.

7. Tinnitus and Hyperacusis

Based on all available records and Plaintiff’s reports, she had no complaints 

of tinnitus prior to entering the military. Instead, Ms. Roper first began experiencing 

tinnitus in approximately 2014 to 2015. 

Ms. Roper experiences her tinnitus as a “weird type of feeling” in her ear that 
10

at times hurts, aches, and itches. [Dep. 91:1-23]. This feeling also sometimes 

presents as pressure within her ear. [Id.]. Ms. Roper typically experiences her 

tinnitus in the presence of loud noises. [Dep. 91:16-92:7]. In an attempt to reduce 

occurrences of tinnitus, Ms. Roper now stays away from loud noises. [Dep. 92:15-

18]. This prevents her from enjoying activities where she knows there will be large 

crowds. [Dep. 102: 10-14]. Additionally, Ms. Roper’s tinnitus has woken her up 

while sleeping. [Dep. 101:10-12]. 

8. Remote Examination

On March 28, 2022, I remotely interviewed Ms. Roper. I reviewed her records 

and questioned her about her noise exposure, use of hearing protection, difficulties 

resulting from tinnitus, hyperacusis and other related issues.

a. Tinnitus

Ms. Roper noted that the ringing in her ears comes and goes, occurring 

approximately five times a month. The ringing can last all day and will sometimes 

interfere with her sleep. Ms. Roper tries to use music to drown out the ringing in her 

hears.

b. Hyperacusis

Ms. Roper stated that her ears are very sensitive to sounds. She will refuse to 

go inside places if she is worried there will be loud sounds present. Ms. Roper 

identified dishes making noise in the kitchen as a problematic source of sound for 

her, which is common for individuals suffering from hyperacusis. Ms. Roper stated 

that even when she is upstairs, the sound from dishes making noise can cause her 

discomfort. Another example of a sound that particularly bothers Ms. Roper is the 

sudden shutting of the microwave door in the kitchen. Sounds with rapid rise times 

very commonly cause discomfort to an individual suffering from hyperacusis. 

Finally, Ms. Roper indicated that she has become somewhat of a homebody, as she 

does not like to be in a crowd: “I just keep to myself at home.” 

9. Defense Examination

The Atlanta Hearing Associates performed an evaluation on March 15, 2022. 

The evaluation documents the presence of tinnitus.

10. Specific Causation Opinions

As in my clinical practice, I performed a differential diagnosis to determine 

the cause of Plaintiff’s tinnitus, hyperacusis and related auditory injuries based on 

my training, experience, the materials reviewed, and the remote examination I 

conducted. 
11

I considered a variety of potential causes of Plaintiff’s acquired hearing 

damage and related auditory injuries including, but not limited to, noise exposure, 

hearing protection device use, ototoxicity, age, significant head trauma, vascular 

injury or ear infections, sudden sensorineural hearing loss, acoustic neuroma, autoimmune disorders, neoplastic disorders, metabolic conditions, otosclerosis, otitis 

media, Meniere’s disease, otitis media, obstruction of the ear canal, tympanic 

membrane perforation, cholesteatoma, tympanosclerosis, and other potential comorbidities and health conditions. I ruled out all of these and other conditions 

contained in the health records and discovery some of which I explain below.

Based on the pertinent records and data, I considered and then ruled out the 

potential causes as detailed below until I arrived at one cause within a reasonable 

degree of audiological and scientific certainty: the inadequate protection of the 

CAEv2 caused Ms. Roper’s tinnitus, hyperacusis and related auditory injuries. These 

conditions are permanent, likely to progress, and greatly impact her quality of life

and exacerbate and aggravate her other medical conditions.

Head trauma: She has no significant head trauma contributing to her tinnitus

and hyperacusis. 

Ototoxic Medication: She has no significant use of ototoxic medications that 

contributed to her tinnitus or hyperacusis. 

Congenital hearing loss: There is no reported family history of genetic hearing 

loss. 

Hearing Protection Devices: Ms. Roper does not recall when she was issued 

her CAEv2 devices, but does recall that it was prior to her diagnosis of tinnitus in 

2018. 

Other health conditions: She has no other health condition that could have 

contributed to her tinnitus or hyperacusis. 

Acoustic neuroma: There is no evidence to suggest she has a tumor on one of 

her hearing nerves. 

In conclusion, Ms. Roper’s tinnitus and hyperacusis are directly related to her 

use of CAEv2. These conditions are permanent, will likely progress, and will require 

future treatment. Her tinnitus and hyperacusis will have a negative impact of her

quality of life and emotional state, her ability to communicate with others, her sleep, 

and her ability to focus on tasks. It will also interfere with her ability to accommodate 

to any other health issue she has now or might have to deal with in the future. 

Relying upon the general causation opinions of the General Experts, and my 

knowledge and experience concerning hearing protection devices, I find that there 
12

were safer alternative hearing protection devices available to Plaintiff during her

military service. Based upon my review of Plaintiff’s military and non-military noise 

exposure, injuries, and the progression of those injuries, it is my opinion to a 

reasonable degree of audiological certainty that Plaintiff could have significantly 

reduced or prevented tinnitus, hyperacusis and related injuries if she had used one 

or more of those available alternative products instead of the CAEv2 during her

military service.

I reserve the right to amend and/or supplement my opinions based on any 

new material, information, evidence, or testimony in this case.
