Hearing Aids have been around since the 15th Century and were invented to help people suffering from hearing loss. The first hearing aids were expensive and available for only the financially well-to-do or upper societies. These ancient instruments were made from wood to resemble the human ear in shape and size and thereby amplified sound naturally.

It is thought that approximately 1 in 6 people suffer some sort of hearing loss. Hearing impairment may be caused by different factors, such as age, trauma, work-related injuries, etc. Regardless of the cause, symptoms are always the same in that the ability to hear and distinguish sound becomes decreased or negligible. Some people require an aid simply to magnify sound while others require a more sophisticated appliance.  Read more... (472 words, estimated 1:53 mins reading time)
