....About
Us (continued)
There are quite literally millions of people today who
suffer from one form of hearing difficulty or another.
Most of these people are not completely deaf, but just
"Hard of Hearing".
Unfortunately
hearing loss can remain undetected for many years as the
symptoms are often ignored or confused. For example you
can think that other people are not speaking clearly or
they are mumbling. Sometimes the cause of a hearing difficulty
is nothing more sinister than ear wax, or a medical problem.
If this is the case our experienced Hearing Aid Dispensers
will recommend the relevant course of action.
In
reality we now live in a very hectic world and the stress
and strain on our hearing is tremendous. Working in noisy
surroundings has inevitably left its mark, as does the
fact that we grow older. These factors can leave us with
the problem of not "catching" all that is said. This is
usually due to the fact that the high-pitched sounds are
lost resulting in loss of clarity. Many people are confused
about the vast selection of hearing aids - we have put
together this guide to inform you what is available.
Our
patients normally have one of two priorities…
1. Quality of hearing
2. Cosmetic appearance - or a combination of both.
21st
Century Hearing recognise this and our Hearing Aid Audiologists
will give you the necessary advice in order that you choose
the correct system. Having a hearing problem can mean
many difficulties in many ways. Sometimes the effects
of a hearing problem can go unnoticed for a long time.
It is often the case that you are not "deaf", but just
don't always "catch" what is said. This is usually the
first sign of a hearing loss. The most common problems
we are asked for help with are....
-
Understanding speech in groups
- Difficulty
hearing the television
- Background
noise
- Hearing
on the telephone
- Family
conversation
- Feeling
of isolation
- Softly
spoken voices
