We often see hearing impaired children wearing hearing aids, but rarely see hearing impaired old people wearing hearing aids. In fact, it is necessary to wear hearing aids when the elderly have hearing impairment.

Under what circumstances does the elderly need to wear hearing aids? According to the people’s daily, when they go to the hospital for examination, doctors will check the hearing mechanics of the elderly to determine whether the hearing loss of the elderly is mild, moderate, severe, extremely severe or totally deaf. If it reaches the middle level and the pure tone test results are more than 40 decibels, it is suggested that the elderly wear hearing aids to compensate for hearing. Chen Zhiling, chief physician of Otolaryngology of Hangzhou hospital of traditional Chinese medicine, said in an online interview with Zhejiang, “hearing aids are like oil-saving devices, which slow down the consumption of oil, while hearing aids slow down the speed of hearing loss and protect residual hearing.”

However, some old people are reluctant to wear hearing aids even if they wear them. According to the Yangcheng Evening News, the main reasons why the old people are reluctant to wear hearing aids are as follows:

First, many people aged 50 to 70 are not willing to admit that they are old psychologically, while wearing hearing aids will objectively make others feel that they have entered the ranks of the elderly, or that their functions have deteriorated.

2. After hearing loss, it’s OK to communicate with people in a quiet environment. So if it’s not necessary to socialize, they may prefer to choose the life style they used to.

Third, some hearing aids do have technical and quality problems. The sound processing technology of these hearing aids will lead to sound color changes and tone changes.

However, if the hearing impaired old people don’t use hearing aids in time, their ability to communicate with others may gradually decline, and they are likely to become withdrawn, reticent and grumpy. Even some studies have shown that Alzheimer’s in the elderly is related to hearing loss to a certain extent. Therefore, when hearing impairment occurs in the elderly, family members should take the elderly to see a doctor in time. For the old people who need to wear hearing aids but do not cooperate with them, their families should not connive. They should advise the old people to follow the doctor’s advice and wear hearing aids scientifically.
