Many models of hearing aids also have directional microphones that will turn down sounds originating from behind and only amplify sounds from the front. The new open fit hearing aids can be worn with no plug in your ear giving a clearer listening experience. All in all today’s digital hearing aids are comfortable in fit and sound quality.

For very difficult listening situations there are assistive listening devices. These can be amplified phones, special vibrating alarm clocks, TV headsets, or FM and infrared transmitters for movies, plays, or church. The Audiologists at ENT Nebraska can help find the right technology to resolve your hearing difficulties.
