      FAQschevron down

      Why can I hear but not understand the words?

      People with hearing loss will often have a poor ability to hear high pitch sounds whilst retaining the ability to hear lower pitches well. This means that anything within the lower range is heard loud and clear (e.g. traffic noise, the babble of a crowd of people etc.) whilst the important high pitches that give clarity to words are not perceivable. As a result people often complain that they can hear fine but just can't understand the words.


      Can I try before I buy?

      Yes, we insist upon it. Free 30 day at-home trials are a necessary part of any hearing aid fitting. At an initial fitting we program the instrument to function as we expect you would want it to. We then like to see clients a week later to fine tune the aids according to your experiences before sending you off again to try out the changes. The Hearing Matters Audiologist can tell you at your initial appointment what we hope the aid to achieve but in the end only you will be the judge.


      Can a hearing aid help me?

      Yes. Hearing aids can help if they are chosen correctly. Because noise creates a particular type of hearing loss (i.e. usually good hearing for low pitched sounds & poor hearing for high pitched sounds) certain hearing aids will provide much better results than others. The right hearing aid will restore clarity by bringing back high pitched sounds without distorting your good low pitched hearing or increasing unwanted background noise. They should be practically invisible & comfortable as well.
