A hearing aid is an electronic device that you can wear in or behind your ear to assist you with hearing. It can help you hear in both loud and quiet settings, thus enabling you to participate fully in your daily life. According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), only one out of five people who can benefit from using a hearing aid actually opts for it.
Hearing loss is a result of damage to the hair cells in the inner ear. A hearing aid amplifies sound vibrations that enter the ear so that the surviving hair cells can detect it. The cells then convert it into a neural signal that the brain processes. The higher the damage to the hair cells, the greater the severity of the hearing loss. This implies that amplification needs to be more significant to make up for the loss of hair cells. You can read the FAQ on hearing aids prepared by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD).
