>> Hearing Aids

Hearing aids can help you re-establish connections to the world. They are made to selectively increase the volume of the sounds you want to hear. They can make soft sounds audible, while at the same time making moderate or loud sounds comfortable. Hearing aids are designed to provide relief in both noisy and quiet situations. Wearing hearing aids can put you at ease during conversations and make you less likely to have to ask others to repeat themselves.

How Hearing Aids Work

Every electrical hearing aid has three parts; a microphone, an amplifier and a receiver.

Microphone:
This collects the sound and converts it into electrical impulses. These reproduce the rise and fall of pitch of the sound (high or low) and the intensity (loudness measured in decibels).

The Amplifier:
The amplifier modulates the electrical impulses to make sounds louder or quieter. It can have an integrated circuit with up to 30 transistors or a combination of circuits. The digital aid uses an efficient micro-chip.

Receiver:
The receiver converts the amplified signal into sounds and feeds them into the ear.
