Hearing Disorder Endocochleaire

Hello everyone,

I have an FAA 1st class certificate with no restrictions and intends to convert this year into CAA UK licenses. My problem is that I have a hearing disorder which is called endocochleaire, by birth and non-evolutive.
I am in the UK CAA standards for the following frequencies:500 Hz, 2000, and 3000Hz. But I am not in the standards for 1000 Hz, I have -45 dB of loss and the requirement is max. -35 dB.
The right ear is close to perfect. I fly and this causes no problem as well as in daily life.

I would like to ask if one of you has/had a similar problem and what are my chances to pass the medical?

I would appreciate your help!
Thanks
