Hearing Aids

There are more and more types and styles of hearing aid available today, as technology becomes more advanced and hearing aid components become ever smaller. What this also means is that hearing aid prices will vary hugely.

Hearing aids can be analogue or digital, but it’s worth remembering that hearing aid prices will differ significantly within the analogue range and also the digital hearing aid ranges.

Prices of digital hearing aids can vary from as little as £300 or £400 to over £2,000 per hearing aid.  When considering a hearing aid you must first seek professional advice and learn about your individual hearing loss and what hearing aid solutions are available to help.

 It may be that with a mild hearing loss a more cost effective hearing aid will be suitable but this may not offer the benefits or smaller hearing aid devices or in-the-ear hearing aids.

The best hearing aids will almost always be branded hearing aids offered by the leading hearing aid manufacturers such as Oticon, Phonak, Siemens, GN Resound and Widex.

Non branded hearings can be suitable but it is difficult to know what you are buying and whether your hearing aid will stand the test of time.

There are four main types of hearing aid, open ear hearing aids, which can also incorporate RITE (receiver in the ear) technology, BTE (behind the ear), ITE (in the ear), and CIC (completely in the canal) digital hearing aids. There are benefits and disadvantages of each type, but the one with the fewest disadvantages is the open ear RITE.

Most people with hearing loss can benefit from an open ear hearing aid, but severe and profound losses may find that BTE digital hearing aids are more suitable. If you are concerned about your hearing go for a free hearing test from a local hearing aid dispenser first. Phonak is one of the world’s leading hearing aid manufacturers and provides some of the best hearing aids available for all types of hearing loss and for all budgets. So if you are considering a hearing aid ask about Phonak hearing aids.  

For those who want to try a discrete but varatile hearing adi ask about Phonak Audeo Yes. It’s a really tiny, light and discrete hearing aid, the Audeo Yes hearing aid has several features that make it an excellent choice. CrystalSound is the core of the hearing aid processor. It digitally amplifies the subtle, high-pitched sounds critical to understanding speech and makes sure nothing gets lost. Digital SurroundZoom is one the industry’s best directional microphone systems. All packaged into a cool, Red Dot Design Award winning form that combines style with ergonomics and practicality. The Audeo Yes shape is designed to allow optimum placement of the dual microphones on the hearing aid for the best performance in noise.

Also worth considering Oticon hearing aids such as Epoq the top of the range digital hearing aid that has binaural processing and can even communicate with mobile phones and other electrical devices. If you are considering a lower cost option consider Oticon Dual which also has amazing processing power and some great features.

With so many digital hearing aids available it’s difficult to know where to start so best seek advice from a hearing care professional.
