This is converted to a nerve impulse and carried to the brain, where it is interpreted into a meaningful sensation. Aging increases this threshold, so the amount of sensory input needed to be aware of the sensation becomes greater. Hearing and vision changes are the most dramatic, but all the senses can be affected by aging. One is hearing and the other is maintaining balance. Hearing occurs after vibrations cross the eardrum to the inner ear.
