Anyone experiencing hearing loss, whether mild or profound, can benefit from hearing aids. They are designed to improve hearing and communication abilities.

There are several types of hearing aids, including behind-the-ear (BTE), in-the-ear (ITE), completely-in-the-canal (CIC), and invisible-in-the-canal (IIC) devices. Each type has its own advantages and is chosen based on factors like the degree of hearing loss and personal preference.

Most hearing aids are not designed to be worn while showering or swimming, as they are not waterproof. However, there are waterproof hearing aid options available for those who lead active lifestyles.

If you’re experiencing difficulty hearing conversations, TV, or other everyday sounds, or if you find yourself asking others to repeat themselves frequently, it may be time to get your hearing tested by an audiologist.
