Due to the misunderstanding of hearing patients or their families’ cognition, many patients only intend to wear a hearing aid at the beginning. After the detailed explanation by Jinghao hearing aid experts, most patients will choose to wear a hearing aid with both ears unless it is really temporarily difficult.

It’s just as important to listen with both ears as to look with both eyes! If you have hearing loss in both ears, you will benefit greatly from the matching hearing aids for both ears.

1. Improve the ability of sound source localization: why do people have two ears? Because the brain needs information input from both ears to determine the direction of sound. We can judge the sound position because of the physiological distance between our ears. For example, the time when the car horn on your left reaches your left ear is shorter than the time when it reaches your right ear, and the energy is also larger. That’s why you can immediately know that the car is approaching quickly from the left. This natural way to live a safe and comfortable life every day

2. Listen freely in noisy environment: noisy background noise makes it difficult for you to keep up with others. For those with unequal hearing, it is more difficult to distinguish the sound from the background noise immediately. The brain needs input from both ears to effectively distinguish sounds.

3. Improve sound loudness: compared with single ear wear, double ear wear can increase your actual listening effect by about 6dB. That is to say, it can make your listening easy and improve your language comprehension, and reduce the possibility of voice feedback.

4. Eliminate the head shadow effect: if a single ear is equipped with a hearing aid, the head will block and attenuate the sound transmission, that is, the head shadow effect. Head shadow effect refers to that the hearing impaired ears without hearing aids can’t hear or locate the source of sound under normal conditions, especially for high-frequency sound greater than 1500hz, the attenuation can be as high as 10-16db, which is very important for the clarity of language and the understanding of speech. The head shadow effect can be fundamentally solved and the attenuation brought by the head shadow effect can be eliminated by matching the hearing aids for both ears.

5. Reduce the risk of hearing loss: optional hearing aids for both ears can reduce the risk of further hearing loss. It is a waste of one ear’s hearing if only one hearing aid is selected according to the conditions of two ear selection. There are still ears with residual hearing that need to be left unused for a long time. The lack of sound stimulation will lead to the loss of brain auditory nerve function, and then the loss of sound processing ability, so that the hearing function is completely damaged. So the earlier you wear hearing aids in your ears, the less likely this risk will be.

6. Hearing loss of children: reducing the risk of hearing loss is particularly important for children with hearing loss. The processing ability of brain and auditory nerve to sound information is gradually developed with the growth of children. The smaller the children are, the more likely they are to pick up the sound, and the easier it is to establish the link between brain and sound. This ability of listening and imitating voice will lay a foundation for the development of children’s language ability in the future.

7. More beautiful sound: the stereo has two amplifiers, which make the music sound more real and three-dimensional. Similarly, if you wear hearing aids in your ears, it will be more comfortable to hear.

Jinghao hearing aid reminder: hearing aid wearing requires professional “matching”, so it is very important to choose a professional hearing aid matching center and a hearing aid tester! If you have any hearing problems, you can call Jinghao for consultation, or come to the matching center for experience. Hearing aid free consultation Tel.: + 86-18566295705
