If you have hearing loss in both ears, it is recommended to wear two hearing aids if possible. After all, residual hearing is very valuable. You can’t change how many dollars without hearing it. What are the benefits of wearing hearing aids in both ears?
1.Improve sound source localization and better identify direction
People’s ears have certain sound source locations. The process of sound traveling through the air generates energy and speed. If hearing loss and hearing thresholds are asymmetric, people with good hearing will receive sound from either side. In this way, it is impossible to judge the direction of the sound. If you wear hearing aids in both ears, you can clearly hear the direction of the sound source.
2.The head shadow effect can be eliminated
Some people may not be very clear about the head shadow effect. Here’s an explanation. When you have a different hearing loss in your ear, if the sound comes from the direction of the poor hearing ear, the sound source is automatically transmitted to the better hearing ear. This is the head shadow effect.
3.It improves hearing comfort
Binaural hearing aids can improve positioning, noise reduction, gain and balance. Binaural hearing aids can greatly improve hearing comfort compared to monaural.
4.Prevent auditory fatigue
If you have hearing loss in both ears, but you only wear one hearing aid, it can lead to long-term use of hearing in one ear, resulting in a certain degree of hearing fatigue. It can also lead to further hearing loss over time, while the other ear becomes increasingly deaf with prolonged use, eventually failing to recover.
As long as there is hearing loss in both ears, and on the premise that there are no other contraindications, we must do our best to choose binaural accessories. Let our patients be aware of: 1. Wearing a hearing aid is better than not wearing a hearing aid; 2. Wearing it early is better than wearing it later; 3. The overall effect of wearing two ears is definitely better than wearing one ear.
