IMPROVE YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE
About 20% of Americans, or about 48 million people, report some degree of hearing loss. At age 65, one out of three people have some hearing loss. For a variety of reasons, people with hearing loss are often embarrassed – but it is a common ailment that often has a simple solution. So if you have hearing loss, understand that you are not alone and you don't have to just "live with it."
Many people are aware that their hearing has deteriorated but are reluctant to seek help. Perhaps they don't want to acknowledge the problem or believe that they can "get by" without using a hearing aid. And, unfortunately, too many wait years, even decades, to address the effects of hearing loss before getting treatment.
THE EFFECTS OF UNTREATED HEARING LOSS
Studies have linked untreated hearing loss effects to:
• irritability, negativism and anger
• fatigue, tension, stress and depression
• avoidance or withdrawal from social situations
• social rejection and loneliness
• reduced alertness and increased risk to personal safety
• impaired memory and ability to learn new tasks
• reduced job performance and earning power
• diminished psychological and overall health
Research by the National Council on the Aging on more than 2,000 people with hearing loss as well as their significant others demonstrated that hearing aids clearly are associated with impressive improvements in the social, emotional, psychological, and physical well-being of people with hearing loss in all hearing loss categories from mild to severe. Specifically, hearing aid usage is positively related to the following quality of life issues.
Hearing correction was shown to improve:
• Communication in relationships
• Intimacy and warmth in family relationships. Ease in communication
• Emotional stability
• Sense of control over life events
• Perception of mental functioning
• Physical health
