Hearing Loss: Come introduce yourself and connect with others
Hearing Loss | Last Active: 9 hours ago | Replies (1444)Comment receiving replies
I am a 69 yo male new to this group. I suffered a sudden hearing loss 10 to 15 years ago and have not done anything about it. I was assessed last week and diagnosed with single-sided deafness. My right ear has normal hearing, but my left hears very little. I am now exploring options to improve my overall hearing. I have tired of always having to position conversations toward my right side…unless I am not interested in the conversation. I am especially interested in the pros and cons of bone-conduction hearing aids and the experience of others with single-sided deafness.

Have you tried a bi-cross hearing aid system? That involves a transmitter on the deaf ear that sends sound to the hearing device on the good ear. Thus, you hear from both sides.
