In the United States, approximately 1 in 3 people aged 65-74 suffer from hearing loss, and almost half of people older than 75 have hearing loss. Hearing loss can make it difficult for seniors to enjoy their life and has even been linked to conditions like depression and dementia. Therefore, it’s important to know what the signs are and how it happens. It’s also important to know how to prevent further complications from age related hearing loss and how to treat it.

Covid and Hearing Loss: Is there a link?

May 20, 2022 • covid • hearing loss covid

Covid-19 is a serious disease caused by the novel coronavirus. It has spread throughout the globe and infected over half a million people so far. There are some studies that report hearing loss can occur through infection, though it is very rare. Other studies found that people with existing hearing loss have their condition worsen when infected with Covid-19. Recently, some studies report that one of the vaccine side effects include hearing loss, which is usually sudden. However, they found that it is reversible or diminished if treated early and thoroughly. This side effect is also considered very rare.

Hearing is easily one of the most precious abilities we have, so what causes hearing loss? Life without sound is miserable plus very dangerous! Imagine not being able to listen to your favorite song, hear the voices of loved ones, or even an intruder breaking into your home.

How much do hearing aids cost?

True or false? The higher the hearing aid costs, the better the quality.

False. A common misconception is the higher the price, the higher the quality, right? Not always. You see, I knew nothing about lawn mowers and needed to replace my old broken lawn mower. Because I knew nothing about the darn machines, I just bought the most expensive one Home Depot had and assumed it was the very best. I was wrong, the new mower had just as many problems as my old one did. If I had done a few minutes of research before I shopped, I would have saved myself a ton of money and time. You better believe that I never made that mistake again!

Very affordable, great sound and clarity, great customer support

Very good so far, I got these yesterday. Put them on, I like the fit. Very comfortable and small behind my ear. I was concerned about that as I wear glasses.
I have them at the lowest setting and hearing is good. My tinnitus is canceled which is amazing how they can do that.
The clarity verses others Ive tried to really good.
I called customer support today for some questions, Kevin was very helpful and took care of me. Very good customer support.
I didnt want to go with the Dr expensive ($2000 - $8000) hearing aids. Glad I found a good alternative. Saved me a ton of money.
Very happy customer.

Happy So Far

I was looking for an affordable hearing device that would help me hear higher frequencies. I am still trying these babies out, but so far I am very happy with them. I like that they are rechargeable and light weight. My wife didn't even know I was wearing them.

Best we've tried

Happened upon this and bought it for my 80 year old dad -- who has tried and lost multiple traditional hearing aids that never worked well for him in the first place, even the one fitted by the VA. I am not exaggerating when I say that this instantly changed our world -- we don't need to yell for him to hear us, the TV went from volume in the high 30's to him being able to hear it at under 10 ... he can even carry on a conversation WHILE having the TV on. He can hear and carry on conversations in groups! I like that it is simple -- we'd tried various apps that had too much for him to fiddle with, and he'd spend all his time focusing on that. With this, he just switches between the two modes as necessary and then adjusts the volume. We did add textured sticky pads to help him find the buttons which are very small and hard for fingers without a lot of feeling to find. We also added a pad on the microphone to make sure he uses the "on/off button" and not the "sync" button (which are nearly impossible to discern between). It looks like the older version was simpler in that regard, but considering how well this one works, we won't switch since we've made accommodations. I'm not sure how younger people would feel about wearing a device that is visually obvious (for example, the mic flashes while he's wearing it on this lapel), but for someone like my dad who can't believe how well this device works for him, it is worth it. When he's not wearing the mic, he clips it to something larger (like a book or box) so that it doesn't go missing. Having two connected charging cords is a nice feature, and so far he's been good about remembering to keep both parts charged. Highly recommend if you haven't had luck with other options -- relatively inexpensive to try and 100% worth it if it works for you, too.

Clear crisp sound

I bought these for my husband after he tried other inexpensive hearing aids and he has thanked me many times over for the wonderful gift. He said the sound is so clean and he has directional hearing again for the 1st time in years. Other cheap hearing aids had a canned sound and didn't last for more than a few months, since I have a soft speaking voice we both became frustrated with the crappy products available in our budget. I really hope they last.

Great hearing aida

I have used my hearing aids for two weeks and have had excellent results
My hearing aid tests, in the past, indicate that I have severe hearing loss.
I set both ears on 3 and have very good hearing,
I only wish they had a longer warranty,

Fantastic Clear Sound!

Right out of the box, without any fine tuning, hearing aids had a wonderful natural sound. They were even great using my cell phone. No feed back at all.
Even ordered a pair for my wife, super picky about her hearing aids. Took a little bit more tuning to please her. She now said they have the best sound she has ever had we have spent $3000 to $6000 on her aids.
Not just the price I paid for our new aids, they have not just the very best bang for the buck, the sound is far superior in all situations the our previous much more expensive hearing aid had!!
I will recommend these hearing aid to all I know that require hearing help!! Thanks
PS. The new design I believe really helped deliver the Natural sound Voices are sharper even in a crowded room or table. Superb in One on one conversations as. No more trying to read lips ! One word FANTASTIC
Thank Yall so much for producing such a fine instrument !

Initial Impressions

This product is working really well for my wife. As expected - and as noted by the seller -there is a period of adjustment to the device (usually three weeks or so) while your ears become accustomed to it, and we are just at the start of that period. However, we're really impressed so far:
- The sound amplification is dramatic, and there is little feedback or "screeching". Before using them, she couldn't hear the television when it was turned up as high as possible, and now has asked me to turn the TV volume down since beginning use of the amplifiers.
- The units are easy to place in the ears, and they're very inconspicuous when worn.
- Possibly most important, Neosonic customer service has been highly responsive. I had a question about cleaning the units, and the video they provided didn't answer it. Kevin, the customer service representative, worked with me to resolve it. I wasn't sure how well the seller would support this product after purchase, but I didn't need to be.
Again, we're just beginning to use these, but I'm greatly encouraged by what's happened so far and confident it'll continue.
