What You Need to Know About Hearing Aids

Are you in denial about the

possibility that you are

experiencing hearing loss?

Perhaps your spouse or

children keep bringing it up.

Maybe they've noticed you

ask them to repeat a question

several times or seem confused during conversations.

Perhaps you turn the volume up so high when watching TV

that it blasts their ears.

Many people are reluctant to accept that they don't hear as

well as they once did.

Hearing loss and the need to wear aids causes some

people to feel that they are aging too rapidly and that their

bodies are failing them. They may be embarrassed and

feel that this will keep them from enjoying their favorite

activities.

[

While hearing loss is a normal part of the aging process for

many people, it can happen to people of any age for a

variety of reasons. The negative stigma isn't as strong as it

once was. Part of that is because the instruments have

changed dramatically. They were once extremely obvious

and cumbersome. The latest models are so small and

discrete that most people won't even know you're wearing

them.

If it's determined that you would benefit from hearing aids,

he/she will explain the different choices to you. There are

many brands on the market and each brand has a long list

of models. Some are worn inside the ear, making them

completely invisible. Others are wireless, digital or water-

resistant. The specialist will explain the advantages and

challenges of each type of hearing aid to you and help you

find the best option to meet your unique situation.

The specialist will work with you to ensure you know how

to operate your new device. Since they are electronic

equipment, special care and maintenance is needed to

extend their life and keep them working to the highest

possible level. The specialist will explain all of this to you

and suggest equipment and accessories that will help you

carry out this task.

A case will help you keep your hearing aids safe when they

are not in use. Cleaning kits are available that contain all

of the tools and supplies needed to keep your hearing aids

clean and sanitary. If you are frequently on the go,

cleaning wipes will come in handy. Special lotions are sold

to keep ears from becoming dry or irritated. It is always a

good idea to keep extra batteries on hand. Your hearing

instrument specialist may sell these items at his office.
