ADVICE
NOTE
• The hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent
or improve a hearing loss resulting from organic conditions . However,
the hearing aid can help you to make the best possible use of your
remaining hearing ability . You should also bear in mind that it can
take time to get used to a new hearing aid and new sounds .
• In most cases, using the hearing aid infrequently will not permit you
to gain full benefit from it .
• The use of a hearing aid is only part of hearing habilitation and may
need to be supplemented by auditory training and instruction in
lipreading .
• The use of hearing aids increases the risk of accumulation of earwax .
Contact your physician/ENT doctor if you suspect that a plug of ear-
wax has accumulated in your ear . Earwax may not only reduce your
own hearing but also the effect of the hearing aid considerably . It
is a good idea to ask your physician to clean your ears a couple of
times a year .
