Would this improve my hearing?!

Would this improve my hearing?

I play in a samba band so I have to wear ear plugs to protect my ears as I'm exposed to the huge drums on a regular basis. Right now I have exams (i'm still at school) so I use my ear plugs a lot when people in my house make too much noise that i can't revise. What i noticed the other day was that the tv was on normal volume (bar 14 is what its always been at) - but it seemed too loud to me. So i'm wondering - if i was to wear the ear plugs more often - that is - wear it all day whenever i'm home - would that make my ears more receptive and improve my hearing? But then again - if this theory is true then it should help those with poor eyesight to be exposed to darkness more frequently shouldn't it? So i'm guessing my little theory is wrong but i'd like some thoughts from you guys - so fire away! :)

you're little theory is right. just as loud noise can make your ears less sensitive, keeping ear plugs in your ears will make them more sensitive, but the effect will wear off after a while.
