Hearing Aid Styles

There are 4 main styles of hearing aids offered at London Hearing Specialist.

These can be seen below. Each style is available in different sizes and colours. Smaller hearing aids are often less visible but have reduced features and a shorter battery life due to accommodating a smaller battery pill.

Our Audiologist will be able to explain this in much greater detail during your appointment and recommend the hearing aid which is right for you.

TYPES & STYLES

Receiver in Canal (RIC)

Receiver in Canal hearing aids sit behind the ear with a small plastic wire transmitting the sound into the ear canal through a small ear mould that sits in the ear.

This type of hearing aid can be the most comfortable and offer the best natural sound quality. However, they are not powerful enough for patients with severe hearing loss.

TYPES & STYLES

In the Ear (ITE)

In the ear hearing aids sit completely in the ear canal which makes it the most discreet style of hearing we provide. It's otherwise known as the "invisible hearing aid". The close proximity to the eardrum allows them to assist patients with mild to severe hearing loss.

 

TYPES & STYLES

Titanium In the Ear (TIE)

Titanium in the ear hearing aids are stronger and lighter than regular acrylic hearing aids. This allows for a more durable hearing aid and results in an even smaller device. As with in the ear hearing aids, their close proximity to the eardrum allows them to assist wearers with profound hearing losses

 

Types & Styles

Cros

Cros hearing aids benefit patients who have a ‘bad’ ear on one side only. This hearing aid works by allowing sounds from the non-hearing side to be picked up and transferred to the other ear via a tiny Cros transmitter. This enables the patient to hear sounds from both sides in their good ear.

Fitting

Hearing Aid Fitting

Fitting Appointment

We will configure the hearing aids to your prescription and run a series of tests to make sure the devices are working at their optimum performance and you can hear all the benefits.

Test the Hearing Aids

We will go on to test the hearing aids in a quiet room with a 1-1 conversation, in a busy store (with background noise), and on the high street to make sure you can hear crisp and clear in all situations.

How to Use the Hearing Aids

We will finish by showing you how to use the hearing aids, how to look after them and answer any questions you may have.

Hearing Aid Aftercare

For peace of mind, our hearing aids all come with free life-long aftercare. If at any point you feel that your hearing aid needs refitting, or you have questions or concerns that you would like to discuss with an Audiologist.

FAQ’s

Hearing Aids FAQ's

  • How do hearing aids work?
    Hearing aids have three basic components: a microphone, an amplifier, and a speaker or receiver. The sound waves pass through the microphone and are converted into electrical signals before being sent to the amplifier. Finally, the amplifier sends the sounds to your ear through a tiny speaker.
  • Who can benefit from hearing aids?
    Hearing aids work best for people with sensorineural hearing loss, which results from damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve. Sensorineural hearing loss can be caused by ageing, infection, disease, or certain medications.
  • Are there any complications regarding hearing aids?
    Hearing aids can improve your hearing by amplifying sounds in your environment and maximising your hearing potential. However, they can have some drawbacks, such as the time it takes to get used to them, the need to see our audiologist for programming adjustments if you have difficulty in certain environments, and the cost of the aids.
  • How long do hearing aids last?
    The best thing about hearing aids is that you don't have to buy new ones. Instead, if your hearing changes, the audiologist can adjust the device's settings.

How Do You Know You Need Hearing Aids?

Getting the proper hearing aids is a rigorous process that involves multiple steps. If you’re not sure whether you need a hearing aid, here are a few steps you should follow:

Have a hearing test

If you suspect hearing loss, it's a good idea to have a diagnostic hearing test in London. This can give you an accurate measure of your hearing loss and how a hearing aid might help.

Having your ears checked can identify other problems that can affect your hearing, such as wax buildup, infection, or injury.

Talk with a specialist about your options

It is common for people to underestimate their perceived hearing loss, and it's only sometimes that your hearing loss may require a hearing aid. You should consider meeting with an audiologist to help you diagnose and treat hearing disorders. Our audiologists will help you select and fit and provide hearing aids.

Besides giving you a physical test, the audiologist will also take your medical history and perform further appropriate diagnostic tests. You can discuss your options with your specialist to find the best and most convenient hearing aid for you.

Find the correct type of hearing aids

Hearing aids are not all the same. They can be very different, with some types fitting behind your ears while others fit inside the ear canal. Some types can connect wirelessly to your phone, filter out background noise, and run on rechargeable batteries. Making the right choice is crucial because the hearing aid will affect your quality of life. We're here to make the choice much easier and more informed.

Importance of Hearing Aid Fitting

There's more to getting a hearing aid than getting the right one. Fitting is also an essential part of the process. In addition to the audiologist assessing your hearing, they will ask extensive questions to understand your lifestyle, communication issues, and needs. Part of the assessment is figuring out where the problem is coming from if it is a medical issue requiring a physician's treatment.

The most important part of hearing aid fitting is customising the physical fit. Customising the acoustics that end up in the ear is part of the process. A hearing test helps determine the loss of hearing and where the problems are coming from.

A microphone is placed in the ear near the canal during the fitting process, and the hearing aid output is measured. This step is important for paediatric patients because their tiny ear canals can damage their hearing if the hearing aid fitting isn't done right.

Getting Used to Your Hearing Aid

After acquiring your hearing aid, the next big step is getting used to the hearing aid. Getting used to a hearing aid takes time. You may notice that your listening skills improve gradually as you become accustomed to the amplification. Even your own voice may sound different when you wear the hearing aid.

Here are some points to keep in mind when you first use a hearing aid:

Hearing aids won’t return your hearing to normal

It is crucial to have practical expectations regarding hearing aids. Hearing aids can't restore normal hearing but can improve hearing by amplifying soft sounds.

Give yourself time

It takes time to get used to your new hearing aid. But the more you use it, the faster you adjust to amplified sounds. Be kind to yourself and give yourself time.

Practice using the aid in different environments

The amplified sounds with the hearing aid will sound different in different places. Trying the hearing aid in different environments makes getting used to sounds from different backgrounds easier.

Seek support and stay positive

A willingness to practice and get used to your hearing aid requires the support of your family and friends, which can also determine your success with the new hearing aid. You may also consider joining a support group for people who have hearing loss or are new to hearing aids.

Keep up with the follow-ups

The follow-ups are just as important as the initial visit. Your specialist will include your follow-up schedule. You should take advantage of this for any adjustments and to ensure that your new hearing aid is working as expected.
