Can wearing hearing aids make tinnitus worse?
Some people still believe that hearing aids can make your hearing and/or tinnitus worse over time. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth!
When you are fitted with hearing aids, your audiologist will programme the devices to match your level of hearing loss. While it may take a few days/weeks to adjust to your new hearing aids, modern devices also have built-in safety features that prevent sound from being amplified to harmful levels.
If you have hearing loss or tinnitus, wearing a pair of hearing aids can improve almost every aspect of your life. Many of our customers find that conversations are easier to follow, they have more energy, and they feel more confident day-to-day.
