Two types of person

According to the CDC, hearing loss is the third most common chronic condition in the U.S.

If this fact surprises you, you’re not alone. Compared to other common conditions, hearing loss gets very little air time. But most of us will experience hearing loss at some point in our lives, and the way we deal with it can mean the difference between missing out and truly enjoying life.

Our research shows that people generally fall into one of two categories… which one are you?

The “look the other way” type

This person has a hard time understanding speech in loud environments, but ignores the signs of hearing loss. They don’t want hearing aids because they think they will make them look old. They don't even want to discuss the matter and just brush it off instead.

As a result, they engage less and less with family and friends and avoid noisy places like restaurants and social gatherings. When they do go out, they pretend everything is okay, but they can’t really follow the conversation anymore.

The “proactive” type

This person has the same hearing difficulties but considers them a problem to be solved, like fixing a flat tire or getting a new pair of glasses. They address the problem head-on and take swift action to improve their hearing.

As a result, this person can engage with family and friends like they always have and thrive in their social lives. Hearing aids quickly become a natural part of their day-to-day and make life better, just like the millions of proactive Americans who wear these devices every day.

So which type are you?

If you’re having trouble keeping up with conversations, but you haven’t done anything about it, it’s time to get real: you’ve been looking the other way. But it’s never too late to be proactive, and if you’re ready to take on your hearing loss and hear life to the fullest, we’ve got good news.

A new, virtually invisible hearing aid is revolutionizing hearing care and outperforming every other device on the market. Its unprecedented speech clarity, immersive soundscaping, and automatic situation detection are changing lives across the U.S.

The device: hear.com’s Horizon Mini IX hearing aid.

These hearing aids are virtually invisible and "mumble-free"

Horizon Mini IX is as amazing and high-tech as the latest iPhones and Android mobile phones. It is as small as a coffee bean and sits virtually invisible in your ear.

Unlike the hearing aids of the past, this new device makes everything sound clearer, not just louder. It uses speech-processing algorithms to enhance a person's voice while automatically reducing background noise. This means you can understand every word clearly, even in noisy environments like restaurants.
