Digital technology has led to the development of lighter and more powerful hearing aids, it has been claimed.
According to Healthy Hearing, digital hearing aids, which often offer a full range of sounds from the highest high notes to the deepest bass, are often smaller than analogue hearing aids. "Today's hearing aids range from lightweight, powerful behind-the-ear (BTE) devices in a rainbow of colours, to receiver in the canal (RIC) hearing aid hybrids that provide an open ear sound, to completely-in-the-canal devices (CIC) that rest inside the ear canal, invisible to the world," the organisation noted. Many hearing aids are convenient and do not require much maintenance, it said, adding that competition in the marketplace is helping increase advances in hearing technology. According to the Royal National Institute for Deaf People, about two million people in the UK have hearing aids, but at least five million others would benefit from them. (by mobilitycompare.co.uk)
