Professional Arts Building 99 Sinclair Ave., Suite 210, Georgetown 905-873-6642 Serving the community of Halton Hills and surrounding areas since 1992 The Georgetown Part 1 Although hearing instrument technology has greatly improved over the years, the fact still remains that nothing can mimic the human ear. Due to the damage in your ears that is causing hearing loss, you will never be able to hear as well as a normal hearing person. Expecting results from your hearing instruments that cannot be achieved will only lead to frustration and dissatisfaction. By asking your hearing professional questions and describing your experiences, the optimum performance can be reached to match your expectations. The following are some facts: * The extent of improvement to your hearing is directly proportional to the severity and the duration of your loss. * The more severe the hearing loss the harder it will be for the hearing instruments to restore your hearing to near normal. * The longer the duration of your hearing loss the harder it will be for your brain to adjust to the new sounds. WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT FROM HEARING INSTRUMENTS!
