The Adjustment Period For Hearing Aids

August 22nd, 2008

The more you use your hearing aid the sooner you’ll get used to this effect. Some users adjust to the occlusion effect within a few months. For those who are really bothered by this, the audiologist can further tune the hearing aid to reduce the volume. You may also hear whistling, which is the result of a feedback. Feedback may be caused by the movement of a hand over the ear, an incorrect fit of the hearing aid or a build-up of ear wax. Regular visits to your audiologist will ensure that your hearing aid fits snugly and that possible defects in the hearing aid are promptly corrected.
