How Hearing Aids Work
Hearing aids are designed to mimic the natural hearing process. Here’s how they work:
These capture sounds from the environment and convert them into vibrations and then into electrical impulses.
These electrical impulses are often too weak initially. The amplifiers inside the hearing aid strengthen these signals, making even very quiet noises audible.
The speakers convert the amplified signals into sound, calibrated to the environment and the wearer’s hearing loss.
