If you suspect hearing aids could improve your quality of life, the best place to start is a hearing test. We recommend working with a professional who can measure your hearing loss, examine your ear, perform tests, and recommend the right hearing aid for you.
Typically in a hearing test, you and your hearing specialist will begin by discussing your health history. This is important to help your specialist understand what could be impacting your hearing loss. Make sure you are as specific as possible so you can get the most accurate results.
Next, your hearing specialist will do a physical ear exam, to check for physical issues in your ear that could be making it difficult to hear. Once again, this helps your specialist make an accurate diagnosis for your hearing loss. It is possible that there are birth defects or earwax causing your hearing loss.
Finally, your hearing specialist will conduct a speech test, where your ability to discern different frequencies will be tested in loud and quiet environments.
After all this is complete, your hearing specialist will walk you through your results of your test. If they believe hearing aids could be beneficial to help your hearing difficulties, they will let you try on hearing aids so you can hear the difference that they can make.
We highly recommend that you claim your free hearing test, so you can start to enjoy a better life!
