Why might you need a Hearing Aid?

Hearing aids are recommended for individuals experiencing hearing difficulties that impact daily life. Some key reasons why you might need a hearing aid include:

  • Difficulty hearing conversations, especially in noisy environments
  • Frequently asking people to repeat themselves
  • Increasing the volume on electronic devices more than usual
  • Struggling to hear high-pitched sounds, such as birds or alarms
  • Feeling isolated due to communication difficulties
  • Experiencing ringing or buzzing in the ears (tinnitus)

Hearing aids can help amplify sounds, improve speech clarity, and enhance overall auditory perception, allowing you to engage more comfortably with the world around you.

Common Causes of Hearing Loss

Hearing loss can occur for various reasons, and understanding its cause is essential for determining the right hearing aid solution. Common causes include:

  • Age-Related Hearing Loss (Presbycusis): A gradual loss of hearing due to ageing, usually affecting high-frequency sounds first.
  • Exposure to Loud Noise: Prolonged exposure to loud environments, such as concerts, workplaces, or headphones at high volumes, can damage the inner ear.
  • Genetics: A family history of hearing loss may increase the likelihood of developing hearing issues earlier in life.
  • Medical Conditions: Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, or otosclerosis can contribute to hearing impairment.
  • Ear Infections and Blockages: Ear infections, fluid buildup, or excessive earwax can cause temporary or permanent hearing difficulties.
  • Ototoxic Medications: Certain medications, including some antibiotics and chemotherapy drugs, may have side effects that damage hearing.

Identifying the underlying cause of hearing loss helps determine whether a hearing aid or other medical intervention is the best solution. Our experienced audiologists are here to support you through this journey, schedule a consultation today.

Types of Hearing Aids

Hearing aids come in various styles and technologies to suit different levels of hearing loss and personal preferences. Some common types include:

  • Behind-the-Ear (BTE): A powerful option that sits behind the ear with a small tube connecting to an earpiece.
  • Receiver-in-Canal (RIC): A discreet and comfortable option with a receiver inside the ear canal, offering clear sound quality.
  • In-the-Ear (ITE): A custom-moulded hearing aid that sits entirely inside the ear for convenience.
  • Completely-in-Canal (CIC): A nearly invisible option that fits deeper in the ear canal, providing a natural hearing experience.
  • Bone Conduction Hearing Aids: Suitable for individuals with conductive hearing loss, these devices transmit sound through vibrations in the bones of the skull.

Our audiologists will help you determine the best type of hearing aid based on your hearing needs, lifestyle, and comfort preferences.

Fees & Medicare Rebate

The cost of hearing aids varies depending on the type, technology level, and features. Some hearing aids may be covered by private health insurance, government programs, or the Hearing Services Program for eligible individuals. Our team can help you explore available funding options to make hearing aids more accessible.
