Frequently Asked Questions about hearing aids

Primary questions about hearing aids

1. What is a hearing aid?: A hearing aid is a device designed to amplify sound for individuals with hearing loss.
2. How do hearing aids work?: Hearing aids use a microphone to pick up sound, an amplifier to increase the sound, and a receiver to direct the sound into the ear.
3. What types of hearing aids are available?: There are several types, including Behind-the-Ear (BTE), In-the-Ear (ITE), Completely-in-Canal (CIC), and Receiver-in-Canal (RIC).

How do i know my hearing loss?

Determining the degree of hearing loss requires a comprehensive hearing evaluation by an audiologist or hearing specialist. Here's how you can get your hearing loss grade:


1. Schedule a hearing test: Contact an audiologist or hearing specialist in your area and schedule a hearing test.
2. Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA) test: During the test, you'll be asked to wear headphones and respond to different sounds and frequencies.
3. Speech Audiometry test: You'll be asked to repeat words and sentences to assess your ability to understand speech.
4. Tympanometry and Acoustic Reflex testing: These tests assess the middle ear function and reflexes.
5. Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) testing: This test measures the sounds produced by the inner ear in response to sound stimuli.

Interpreting Hearing Test Results

The audiologist will plot your test results on an audiogram, which shows the degree of hearing loss in decibels (dB).

The degree of hearing loss is categorized into different grades:

- Normal hearing: 0-25 dB
- Mild hearing loss: 26-40 dB
- Moderate hearing loss: 41-55 dB
- Moderately severe hearing loss: 56-70 dB
- Severe hearing loss: 71-90 dB
- Profound hearing loss: 91 dB or greater

Don't hesitate to consult an audiologist or hearing specialist to determine your hearing loss grade and explore the best solutions for your specific needs.
