Both of my eardrums have been perforated for about 6 years now. It's seemingly permanent. I did a lot of free diving and one one trip down had them both go on me. I had a muffled feeling in my ears for a few weeks but it went away. My hearing is not seemingly degraded at all, it's the same as I remember it before. However, I have an open eustachian tube from my ears to my throat due to some previous surgery to remove some infected glands and I can pour warm water in my ears and suck drops of liquid in to my throat. So 6 years later and I still have a slight hole in the eardrum.
Again, my hearing doesn't seem to be affected at all and the weird feeling from the initial rupture went away in about 2 weeks.
