It's very well established that people having hearing damage will hear things very differently because they have holes in their response that can no longer can mask certain sounds.

This is one of the traps of working in audio. There will always be things that each of us will completely miss that others will hear clearly. This isn't a matter of absolute hearing acuity but rather one of an amazingly wide range of individual hearing differences.

We are all mixing and mastering for a great big moving target.
