What is hearing Aids?
A hearing aid is an electronic device that amplifies sounds reaching the ear according to the person’s hearing loss, making speech and everyday sounds easier to hear. There are behind-the-ear, in-the-ear and in-the-canal types. Before choosing a device, an ENT specialist examines the ear and looks for earwax or a treatable cause, and an audiogram measures the type and degree of hearing loss. People with severe hearing loss who do not benefit enough from hearing aids may be assessed for a cochlear implant.
How is hearing Aids done?
- ENT examination and earwax removal
- Audiometry and speech discrimination tests
- Choosing the device type for the hearing loss and lifestyle
- Personal fitting (programming) and ear moulds
- Adaptation period and follow-up adjustments
Who is hearing Aids suitable for?
- Age-related hearing loss
- Noise-induced hearing loss
- Children and adults with permanent hearing loss that cannot be treated
- People struggling to follow conversations or hear the television
Aftercare: what to watch out for
- Wear the device every day; the brain gradually gets used to sounds again.
- Start in quiet places and move gradually to busy ones.
- Protect the device from moisture and clean it regularly.
Possible side effects and risks
- Hearing your own voice loudly and discomfort in the first weeks
- Itching or irritation from the ear mould
