Is
it necessary to use two hearing aids? |
|
Because people are
born with two ears for communication, people with hearing loss on
both ears are advised to use two hearing aids. Hearing with two
ears improves sound quality, localization of sound and hearing ability
in noise. |

Why
does my hearing in noisy environment not get improved after hearing
aid fitting? |
|
It is the most common
complaint reported by analogue hearing aid users. As all sounds,
speech and background noise, are picked-up and amplified by the
hearing aid simultaneously, the amplified speech will be masked
by the amplified background noise. Nowadays, thank you for the technological
advancement, hearing aids with fully digital circuit, multi-channel
signal processing, noise reduction system and directional microphones
are available, which significantly improve the sound quality, fitting
comforts and hearing ability in the noisy environments. |

of the hearing aid. If you take good care of your hearing aid, it can be used for years. |
