My daughter has an auditory impairment which she describes as "brain deaf".

Basically, her hearing is perfect but her brain struggles to process sound in a noisy environment; she can't single out what she is listening to.

This sounds perfect for her!

An audiologist described this to me as having an "audio processing disorder". Hope this helps.
