Addressing a hearing problem early is one of the most important things you can do for yourself and loved ones.
Nearly half of people over 50 has some kind of hearing loss. That figure increases to three out of four people over 70. Unfortunately treatment is less common. Only 20% of people who could benefit from a hearing aid actually wear one.
Hearing loss affects not only the individual, but the people around as well. Research shows that when a hearing loss is effectively treated, both the individual and their families experience significant improvement in quality of life.
Benefits experienced by people wearing hearing aids include: improved self-confidence, better personal and professional relationships, sense of independence and security, easier communication with children, and satisfaction with life overall.
