First of all, my condolences, and I hope to avoid hearing loss in the future.

My question is, do you find that hearing loss or tinnitus is more severe on your "strong" side, or the side from which you tend to fire? This may not apply if you are an isosceles stance pistol shooter exclusively, but I'm wondering if there is any natural protection for the ear that is away from the gun.
