The cost of hearing aids DOES NOT depend on your degree of hearing loss. What you spend on your hearing aids will depend on:
- Your hearing results
- Your lifestyle activities
Be aware, that spending more doesn’t necessarily get a a better result. You should only ever purchase hearing aids that contain the technical features that are relevant to your day to day activities. The best way to determine what you should pay for a hearing aid, is to come into Active Audiology and talk to one of our audiologists. We spend a considerable amount of time determining what sort of lifestyle factors would influence the right hearing aid choice for you. We go through each brand in detail and the what the differences are.
