Which hearing aid is best for you?

There is no one hearing aid that works for all people, so there is no absolute best hearing aid in the world. But there are hearing aids that are best for your current situation and that will fit you and your unique needs.

There are usually several factors that can help you determine the best hearing aid for you, and taking all of these factors into consideration can determine which hearing aid will best meet your needs. Factors that are generally considered by many people include.

Your level of hearing loss

Over time, it is not uncommon for people to lose some hearing in the HF as they age. But hearing loss is complex and unique to each person and can change over time. And because even mild hearing loss is associated with cognitive decline, all hearing loss, regardless of age, should be treated with hearing aids or other measures.

For people with mild to moderate hearing loss, a wider range of hearing aids will be available. However, people with severe hearing loss must use specially designed hearing aids to address their unique hearing deficits.

Your lifestyle

Do you need to use digital technology (e.g., smartphone) to communicate with friends and family? Is changing your hearing aid batteries something you or someone you trust can easily do?

Your budget and value-added features

What is the most you can pay for a hearing aid? What is your budget for your purchase? What types of features do you want in a hearing aid? Would you prefer an inclusive package that includes unlimited customer service and years of audiologist support? Would you like to invest in a high-end product if it had longevity and user-friendly features that would improve your experience?

In short, a combination of these factors will help you decide which hearing aid is best for you. At Spieth, we’ve served thousands of people with hearing loss with professional services that include everything you need to hear better and can be personalized to match exactly what you’re looking for.
