Hi,
Hole in the eardrum is usually caused by trauma or infection fluid collection in the middle ear. It affects hearing. It may transmit the infection to the middle ear. So it needs repair. For the cost, contact a local doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
