[Hearing aids are] pretty miraculous right now they're very small in fact we brought some
examples if you wanna see them
Hearing aids are so small, and
these go away inside your ear. The only thing that's visible as the string which you
can hide
Hearing aids are not only small, they're comfortable. This is something that people would keep in all day, and
you would take it out at night to
preserve the battery and that let your ear breathe
or dry out. It's so small that
people do forget sometimes and they can walk into the
shower with them
and you know and then they remember. I can see this this is how small
the
latest modern technology and hearing aids let you stream your cell phone
through it so if you have a cell phone conversation, it will
stream right to your hearing aids. And you can stream television
too. These hearing aids are Bluetooth capable
so when you get a phone call it just goes straight to your hearing aid.
you press a button yes you're calling your hearing in both ears
OK do people
if they buy from your store do they wear hearing aids in both ears or just
one?
it depends on their hearing loss
what we recommend is, if they have hearing loss in both ears we recommend wearing one in each ear.
Why do you
tend to lose your hearing? Is it just something that kinda starts to go?
yeah the body starts to degrade and th little tiny hair cells inside the inner
ear will break down over time, or it could be genetically related
noise related hearing loss also occurs, but that typically is at the top range of sound
We have four Miracle Ear stores.
Carlsbad, Encinitas
Poway and Escondido
and and do people come to you guys because
a doctor has said hey you're hearing is bad you gotta go get a
hearing aid
I recommend you go to Miracle Ear... or do people come on their own and tell you,
"you know I can't really hear that well?"
spouses sometimes don't hear each other
This is a funny story John told earlier, but
spouses come in thinking they have hearing loss because they can't hear. They
say, "My wife says I never hear
hears her." and we test them and sometimes it shows that there's no
hearing loss!
it's a selective what I hear with my boyfriend.
So we do that we do recommend a good marriage therapists in those cases.
we're seeing
when people come and cuz they they do say you know I can't really hear the
arguments.
I've been wearing headphones for years and years and years all turned up you
know
and I feel like now my kids they all wear ear buds and I feel
like they're all gonna lose their hearing.
when people come to your stores do you do extensive testing for them
yes absolutely we do an evaluation where we find out where they have any hearing loss
where that loss is located, and with noise related loss it usually occurs with the often is in the higher
trebble pitches. But once we know what kind of loss there is, we can customize the
solution
according to their loss
