Hearing loss is one of the most neglected diseases in the World especially in developing countries. However, the most important way of communicating with the outside world and our environment is through healthy hearing. If hearing loss is a loss that cannot be corrected by medication or surgical intervention and it is recommended to use hearing aids by an expert (ENT, audiologist, audiometrist ..), we should not waste time.
Hearing loss, especially due to age, is progressing, albeit slowly. Even if it is not used when it is first suggested, it will have to use due to progressive hearing loss and negative effects on life.
Hearing loss due to hearing nerve and cells can not meet enough sound stimulus to lose function and over time, perception problems and speech impairment may occur. For this reason, it is important for patients who are diagnosed with hearing loss and whose hearing aid is recommended by their specialist to start using the device as soon as possible so that they do not lose their comprehension ability and get the most benefit from hearing aids.
The hearing aid does not improve hearing loss, but prevents progression, and increases and filters the sound the person needs and improves the patient’s quality of life and comfort.
