Amazing New Technology for Hearing Aid Users
Thanks to revolutionary new technology, digital hearing aids have never been more accessible.
For many Australians suffering with hearing loss, we tend to just accept it as a fact of life. Maybe we are getting on in years and this is something that was bound to happen eventually.
The fact of the matter is, nobody should have to deal with hearing loss. It’s one of the most incredibly isolating and debilitating conditions for those affected. With new advancements made in hearing aid technology, digital hearing aids have never been this small, this discreet and this powerful!
Who can be affected by hearing loss?
The loss of hearing is something that affects up to 1 in 6 Australians, roughly about 17% of the population! It’s estimated that up to 4.7 million people could benefit from the help of a digital hearing aid.
The reality is, hearing loss can affect anybody, whatever age. The key to saving your hearing is to act fast. Prevention is key to be able to keep full use of your hearing even as you age. The sooner the better experts say. The more hearing there is to save, so to speak, the higher the rate of success with a hearing aid.
The main types of devices on the market are all battery operated and fall into four categories, Behind-the-ear (BTE), In-the-ear (ITE), In-the-canal (ITC) and Completely-in-the-canal (CIC). Hearing aids available on Medicare tend to be bulky behind-the-ear types. However, you can book a free consultation and purchase more discrete types of hearing aids privately.
What are the costs and where can I find the right clinic?
Now that hearing aids are more in demand, and with new private suppliers coming up every day, costs have never been lower for customers. With so many different clinics competing for your dollar, use it to your advantage and find the perfect fit for you!
