Studies have shown that people with hearing loss who do not use
hearing aids experience more sadness, fear and anxiety than
hearing aid users. They reduce their social activities, become
emotionally unstable and have trouble concentrating. On the
other hand, studies also show that hearing aid users experience
a dramatically increased quality of life as soon as they start
using a hearing aid. They maintain better family relationships,
have more self-confidence and experience more independence and
security. If hearing loss is not corrected, it can result in
physical issues such as tiredness or fatigue, headaches, vertigo
and stress. The described symptoms are not always caused by
untreated hearing loss, but they are observed in many cases. If
you experience hearing loss and recognize some of the symptoms
described above, you should contact your Audiologist or Hearing
Aid Dispenser.
