Experience the power of today’s hearing aids
With the exciting advancements in digital hearing aid technology, you have more choices and solutions than ever before. The newest “open fit” models provide clearer and more comfortable hearing. In fact, with “barely-there” styles like “open fit,” it’s hard to tell if you’re even wearing a hearing aid.
What hearing aids can do
With complex circuitry concentrated in a tiny unit, today’s hearing aids are powerful cousins to yesterday’s bulky units. Specialized digital circuitry “reads” sounds, amplifying speech and reducing noise to a minimum while maximizing comprehension of the human voice. Some units adapt to different listening situations so you hear well in different sound environments. This flexibility improves most types of hearing loss.
What they can’t do
Unlike eyeglasses that can correct vision to 20/20, hearing aids cannot magically restore hearing to what it was before. Using hearing aids requires time and patience. The brain needs to relearn how to listen, a process that can take some time. The key is not to get frustrated.
Two ears are better than one
Most research has shown that most people benefit from wearing two hearing aids rather than just one. That’s because “binaural hearing” (with two ears) helps you identify where sounds are coming from and distinguish between them. With two ears, loud sounds, echoes and background noise are filtered out. With only one ear, different sounds get mixed up, making it difficult to distinguish between words and "noise."
