Hearing Aids for the Elderly with Hearing Loss
Hearing loss occurs when there is a problem with one or more parts of the ear, but it is a natural process of aging. Aging takes a toll on most parts of the body and the first to get effected are the ears and eyes. Eyesight problems are treated as soon as they occur, but hearing impairment is neglected more often than not. A very common cause for hearing loss in the elderly is Tinnitus, which is a ringing, swishing type of noise that seems to originate in the ear or head. Hearing loss is evident when a person cups his ear to hear better or wants the volume of broadcasts higher than normal or asks for repeats of conversation and very importantly withdraws from socializing with family and friends. The ideal solution is to take the person with hearing loss to a hearing aid clinic for assessment and then fit them with a customized hearing aid to suit their needs.
