Will hearing aids get worse?

There is always a question when hearing loss or hearing loss parents choose a hearing aid: “Will the hearing aid wear more and more?”

2, for children, behavioral audiometry is the gold standard for hearing loss judgment. Unfortunately, many unprofessional hearing centers blindly choose hearing aids for children based on objective examination results, which is highly likely to cause over-amplification of hearing aids. hearing.

Third, lifestyle or living environment

Living or working in a noisy environment for a long time, such as restaurants, workshops, supermarkets, etc., if the noise suppression function of the hearing aid is not good, it is likely to lead to further hearing loss.
