With summer approaching, we want to make sure you’re able to gear up for all the giggles, gatherings and good times ahead.
May is Better Hearing & Speech Month, which means it’s a great time to check in and see how things are going with your hearing. Whether you currently wear hearing devices or generally experience trouble hearing, you deserve to hear your best.
To maximize every sunny moment, you need optimal hearing—and recent technological advancements in hearing devices can help.
Today’s devices offer more benefits than the hearing models of even a few years ago, with features like:
- Better speech understanding with less effort
- Easier listening in noisy places
- Universal Bluetooth® connectivity to your devices
- Long-lasting, rechargeable batteries
Signs You Should Treat Your Hearing Loss
If you are unsure if your hearing loss warrants treatment, here are four key signs you need to take action.
1. You Have Difficulty Following Conversations
Those with hearing loss can usually get by with visual cues, such as lip-reading. If you have difficulty following conversations using only your sense of hearing, you may have hearing loss.
2. You Think Others Are Mumbling
People with hearing loss lose high-frequency sounds, including consonant sounds, first. This leaves them mostly with vowels, which can sound like someone is mumbling.
3. You Can’t Hear in a Crowded Environment
Those with hearing loss have a hard time struggling to distinguish speech from background noise.
4. You Turn the Television Up Too Loud
It’s common for those with hearing loss to listen at an uncomfortably loud volume.
