Hearing aids cannot completely eliminate unnecessary noise, but the good news is that there are hearing aids available that amplify the sounds you do want to hear and minimise the ones you don’t.
Research has revealed that dual microphones effectively reduce background noise for many people with certain types of hearing loss. We can help you determine the best circuits and microphone options for your level of hearing loss and communication needs.
The type of hearing aid that is best suited to your needs will depend on the degree and frequency of your hearing loss and your ear’s anatomy, as well as your lifestyle needs, manual dexterity and cosmetic preference. This is why we offer a variety of hearing aids in different styles, outlined below.
The smallest hearing aid on the market, the CIC usually requires a “removal string” due to its size and that fact that it fits so deeply into the ear canal. It is used for mild to moderate hearing loss.
This hearing aid is slightly bigger than the CIC and therefore allows for greater unctionality. It accommodates mild to moderate hearing loss.
The ITE hearing aid fills the entire “bowl” of the ear and is often easier to handle due to its larger size. It is used to assist with mild to moderately severe hearing loss.
One of the more conventional hearing aids, the BTE is situated behind the ear and transmits sound into the ear canal through an ear mould. It is also one of the more flexible hearing aids and can accommodate anything from mild to profound hearing loss.
This particular kind of BTE hearing aid has a speaker that is situated inside the ear canal, which provides a more natural sound. The RITE is used to assist with mild to severe hearing loss.
We also offer a wide range of additional tech solutions, assistive listening devices and gadgets. This includes telephone amplifiers, infrared TV systems, amplified alarm clocks, hands-free cell phone options, FM options for hearing aids, and more.
Need to change your hearing aid’s volume or programme settings without anyone noticing it? Many hearing aids can now be linked to an app which allows you to change your settings via your smart phone. As easy as that!
Traditional hearing aids use disposable batteries that can last from three to 14 days. Nowadays, most brands have hearing aids available that have rechargeable lithium ion batteries built into them, making the hearing aid as simple and easy to recharge as your cell phone.
You can now easily stream from any Apple or Android device directly to specific hearing aids.
