You can’t always tell when it’s time to have your hearing
evaluated. It is rare for hearing to change
suddenly or in a noticeable way.
Typically, hearing changes very slowly.
So gradually, that most people aren’t aware of it. Your family and friends are likely to notice
it before you.
Hearing needs to be checked regularly throughout life. Hearing evaluations should be as routine as eye
and dental exams. Regular hearing
checkups will help you maintain your maximum hearing and listening abilities,
and avoid mishearing information. If
your hearing evaluation reveals hearing technologies are needed to maximize
your hearing ability and decrease mishearing, move forward. You will be pleasantly surprised by how well
they work and look.
Celebrities and performers use them to maximize their
ability to do their jobs, to hear cues and to provide appropriate answers and information
to questions. Others use them to hear
the boss, to be part of the discussion at a meeting and to increase their
awareness of things happening at work. They
aid in daily life activities such as talking to shop clerks or servers in a
restaurant and enjoying the company of family and friends. It’s impossible to know who uses hearing aids
today. Hearing instruments range from
invisible to successfully camouflaged
.
Have regular hearing checkups. When hearing is stable check it every five
years. When changes are noted, annual
evaluations are necessary. Call and
schedule an appointment for your baseline evaluation.
Life sounds great! Enjoy
every moment!
