What Does a Digital Hearing Aid Do?
In a nutshell, digital hearing aids will significantly improve the quality of your life, whether you have bilateral or unilateral hearing loss.
You’ll probably remember the bad old days when you saw relatives struggling with those large, clunky, flesh-coloured analogue aids. Well, modern digital hearing aids are totally different. They’re ‘intelligent’ devices, which are much more effective and cosmetically pleasing, in different sizes and colours to suit all tastes, and a price range to suit your budget.
Digital hearing aids are designed to help you distinguish between the softer sounds that you want to hear and the louder noises you don’t. The more sophisticated ones will amplify the softer sounds at the same time as ‘dampening’ the harsher ones.
This means that if you’re having a conversation in a crowded room, the technology inside your digital hearing aid will automatically reduce the background noise so it’s no longer distracting. It’ll be easier to hear what your friends are saying and for you to take a more active part in the conversation. And you’ll hear in stereo which will make it so much easier to work out who’s talking.
Designed For Your Level of Hearing Loss
What’s more, we’ll be able to program your digital hearing aids according to your level of hearing loss and personal requirements to get the best possible use out of them in all situations, whether you’re at work, out with friends, having quiet conversations at home, listening to music, watching television, on the phone, at the cinema or theatre, out for walks etc.
Types of Digital Hearing Aids
There’s even technology that links your hearing aid to your television, mobile phone and MP3 player so you can adjust the volume for your personal needs. You can even use it to turn your mobile into a hands-free device!
It’s amazing that such tiny little gadgets could give you your life back!
