The basic premise that describes all hearing aids is sound processing and amplification. Hearing aids contain microphones that pick up the sounds around you, and those sounds are then processed for optimal audibility, highlighting important sounds like vocalizations and minimizing noise.

Some hearing aids use batteries, which need to be changed every 3-7 days while others use a rechargeable system that can last up to 18 hours a day between charges.

A benefit of many modern hearing aids is that they have wireless connection compatibility, allowing you to connect your hearing aid directly to sources of audio such as computers, tablets, and phones. They can also be customized to match your skin tone, so they are less visible.

Hearing aid styles are categorized by where they sit relative to the ear. For example, in-the-ear hearing aids are worn inside the ear canal. This type of hearing aid will be fitted to each individual. There are a variety of sizes available, depending on how deep in the ear these devices are inserted.

Invisible-in-the-canal devices are placed deep into the ear canal, with a string that allows users to pull them out when necessary. Completely-in-the-canal devices are almost invisible but are not inserted as deep into the canal.

In-the-canal options rest just inside the ear and are a larger size suitable for use by people with mild to severe hearing loss. Half shell and full shell options are custom made and include buttons for easy use. They are the best in-ear option for wearers with low dexterity.

Receiver-in-the-ear devices have a microphone and processing unit separate from the speakers. The speakers will rest inside the user’s ears, but there is a separate unit that sits just behind the ears. This type of hearing aid often has rechargeable batteries due to its larger size.

Behind-the-ear with earmold devices is versatile and suitable for people with hearing loss of all types. They have long battery life and are the preferred style for children since the earmolds can be replaced as they grow.
