A question for those who use hearing aids.

Posted on 12/11/2024 5:44:59 AM PST by LouAvul

Who to consult for preliminary considerations? The guys at Costco? Or a licensed ENT? I seem to recall some specific hi-tech test for best results.

Which type hearing aid is best? In the ear canal? Outside?

Cons? Short battery life? Don't do the job?

My situation is I like the tv louder than my wife; can't always hear her; miss dialogue in Bible class at church; etc.

thanks

My folks used nice, comfortable headsets that they could adjust - TV viewing.

I got them from an audiologist and have been very happy with the hearing aids and follow up appointments.
