"Is It Time To Upgrade My Hearing Aids?"

Hearing aids, while extremely durable and reliable, need replacing after a certain period of time. In some cases, your hearing prescription may change, causing the hearing aid that you've been wearing for a while to become outdated. Think of your hearing aid as you would a pair of eyeglasses; your eyesight will change over time, as will your hearing.

A couple of questions to ask yourself when determining whether or not it may be time for a hearing aid upgrade:

1. I have had my hearing aids for:

• One to three years

• Three to five years

• Five to seven years

• More than seven years

2. My current hearing aids are allowing me to hear:

• Perfectly

• Good

• Okay

• Not as well as I did when initially purchased

• Poorly

• Others complain that I still can't hear them

3. I have had to take my hearing aids to be serviced more than I would have liked to:

• Yes

• No

4. My current hearing aids allow me to do the things that I enjoy doing without having any difficulty hearing:

• Yes

• No

5. I find that I fiddle with the volume control more often than I would like:

• Yes

• No
