For nearly 40 million Americans, hearing loss is part of life. Most frequently, it can be the result of a combination of factors, such as genetics or noise exposure. It can take years to recognize hearing loss, because for many it comes on gradually. It also takes time to build up the confidence to accept and address hearing loss; but it is manageable. In fact, there are thousands of hearing care professionals across the country who can help. For the vast majority of people, professionally-fitted hearing aids offer great benefits.

What many people don’t realize is that it’s easy to get a hearing test by a licensed hearing care professional and you can do it without any purchasing commitment. In other words, there’s no pressure. In fact, many licensed hearing care professionals provide a free hearing aid evaluation.

The first step is simply determining if you have hearing loss and identifying how significant it is. If hearing aids are recommended, there is no need to make a decision on the spot. In addition, the state of Florida requires a minimum 30-day trial period. So if you do want to try something, you have time to determine if hearing aids, and which type, are right for you.

In many ways, hearing loss is the unintended by-product of life fully lived. But when ignored and left unaddressed, hearing loss robs from life. It isolates and diminishes quality of life. Perhaps most notable, unaddressed hearing loss creates barriers and unnecessarily strains even the best of relationships.

The overwhelming majority of people with hearing loss can benefit from hearing aids. High-performance technology and style have merged with durability and ease-of-use when it comes to today’s hearing aids. The options are so varied there is an attractive solution for just about anyone. Many of today’s hearing aids allow users to hear from all directions, in all sorts of sound environments – even underwater. They are digital, wireless and can connect directly to your smartphone or television.

Today’s hearing aids throw away oldworld notions about hiding a condition as common as hearing loss. Whether they sit discreetly inside the ear canal, or wrap aesthetically around the contour of the outer ear, today’s high-performance hearing aids amplify life. They unabashedly send the message: “I’m too young and full of life to stop doing the things I love best.” (www.betterhearing.org)
