Tinnitus is a heterogeneous condition in Meniere's Disease. The type of tinnitus in Meniere's Disease ranged from pure tones to noise-like tinnitus (white, brown and pink noise). Meniere's Disease patients with tonal tinnitus present higher scores in Tinnitus Handicap Inventory compared to Meniere's Disease patients with noise-like tinnitus. There is a positive correlation between Tinnitus Handicap Inventory and Visual Analogue Scale, with a stronger association in patients with bilateral Meniere's Disease. Tinnitus extreme phenotype (TEP) in Meniere's Disease showed Tinnitus Handicap Inventory scores of 80 out of 100, with lower age of onset for both Meniere's Disease and tinnitus.
