Loss of hearing clarity: Solutions or strategies anyone?

@contentandwell Is your difficulty with clarity primarily happening in crowded spaces (like coffee shops and restaurants) or everywhere (including quiet places like home)? If primarily in crowded spaces, then you might want to discuss the possibility of spatial hearing loss with your audiologist. There are tests that can be performed to diagnose it. JK McElveen

@jkmcelveen When I had my hearing tested the level at which I could hear sounds had not changed much. My recognition of words had degraded quite a bit.
Crowded places are virtually impossible, even just a few people together in our home makes it impossible to hear, it's all garbled. With my current hearing aids, Oticon Opn1s, the clarity is improved. I can now hear what the sermon is in church if it is said loud enough and not mumbled. I could not that before I had these hearing aids.
I believe I have had all of the tests but I have an appointment coming up so I will mention that to her. Thanks for the suggestion.
