Common reasons people avoid getting hearing aids
Cost
There’s no question hearing aids are an investment, not just a grab-and-go solution to treating hearing loss. Getting the right technology to treat your personal hearing loss is important for you to have the best hearing you can moving forward.
I’m hearing just fine
You may be very good at reading lips and body language so you’re coping. Why mess with what’s working for you? While you may think you’re coping, the people around you know you’re struggling. Misunderstandings can create conflict, at work and at home. Think your hearing isn’t as bad as your audiogram showed? An audiogram is an impartial, scientific testing method you can trust.
I’m too young for hearing aids
Hearing loss can happen at any age. It can be caused by loud noise damage, illness, certain medications, even heredity. So, it’s not just age. Think about it – what makes you seem old? Always asking people to repeat themselves or having a nearly invisible hearing aid that allows you to participate in your world?
Hearing aids are ugly
There are so many different designs of hearing aids now. Many that are practically invisible. Hearing aid designers know people want something subtle and discreet, so designs are varied and many are customizable to colour as well. In a world where lots of people are constantly wearing earbuds for music or phone conversations, no one’s going to think twice about your hearing aids.
The hearing aid technology that works for you
Science has learned so much about the connection untreated hearing loss has to overall health. But what about the human side? Hearing loss can hold you back at work, in relationships, even in your hobbies.
