Hi, this has been on my mind for sometime now, and I wanted to ask you
all a few questions. I have read an article at Hearing Aid . I was
reading about it on medical health care info
http://medical-health-care-information.com/encyclopedia/H/Hearing-Aids.asp
which says a hearing aid makes sounds louder (amplify). While they may
amplify some types of sounds more than others, at this time they cannot
be made or programmed to amplify only one type of sound, such as a
voice. Hearing aids do not restore normal hearing, but they may help
people with hearing loss function and communicate more easily. Hearing
aids differ in how they look, their size, where they are placed in the
ear, and how much they can amplify sounds. All hearing aids consist of:
A microphone, to pick up sound.
An amplifier, to make the sound louder.
A speaker, to deliver the sound into the ear.
Batteries, to power the hearing aid.
While it must be true, I wonder what you have to say about it. Do let
me know! Regards,Tom
