![Myth # 1: Hearing aids are not
effective
Reality: A study reported in the Journal of the American Medical
Association comparing the effectiveness of three popular types of
hearing aids concluded that:
Each [hearing aid] circuit markedly improved speech
recognition, with greater improvement observed for soft
and conversationally loud speech....All 3 circuits
significantly reduced the frequency of problems
encountered in verbal communication....Each circuit
provided significant benefit in quiet and noisy listening
situations.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/thetop5hearingaidmythsexposed-hearingmatters-150529150248-lva1-app6891/85/The-top-5-hearing-aid-myths-exposed-5-320.jpg)

- 7. Myth # 3: Hearing aids are too expensive Reality: As with most consumer electronics, hearing aids range in price depending on performance and features. While you may not wantor needthe top of the line hearing aids, you can probably find a pair that matches your needs, preferences, and budget. Most patients also feel that the value of better hearing and a better life is usually well worth the cost.
- 8. Myth # 4: You can save time and money buying hearing aids online Reality: Would you buy a pair of prescription glasses online without first consulting your eye doctor, having an eye exam, and obtaining your prescription? Probably not, and buying hearing aids is very similar. Hearing aids need to be professionally programmed by a hearing specialist according to your unique hearing loss characteristics. Otherwise, its like wearing someone elses prescription glasses.
- 9. Myth # 5: Hearing aids are uncomfortable and difficult to operate Reality: Digital hearing aids dynamically process sound with a small computer chip so that you dont have to worry about manual adjustments; additionally, some digital hearing aids can even be controlled through your mobile phone. The bottom line: digital hearing aids are being manufactured with maximum ease-of-use in mind.
