Thank you, Julie, for this helpful information. ( I did find out that the study referenced was retracted in the UK in December 2023 )
I do think hearing aids will be beneficial for cognition. I had noticed my husband’s withdrawal in social settings.
Yes….we went to a professional audiologist and have an appointment to go back for fitting next week.

I've written a longer post about Phonak aids, but forgot to add this- with the regular aids, my husband complained alot that he felt his hearing was like his head "was in a bucket" and he didn't want to wear them. The Phonaks have a different system- small ends to the wires which small "bells" fit over. He says he hears "great".
