After recognizing the necessity and importance of bilateral hearing aids, research and practice have shown that there are obvious advantages on both sides compared with single-sided hearing aids. Experts recommend that hearing aids should be worn on both sides as long as conditions permit. This is especially important for the elderly because senile deafness patients have poor hearing resolution and severe resilience, and need a hearing aid that is clearer and can effectively limit excessive sound output. The advantage of wearing a hearing aid with both ears is helping the elderly. Listen better.

First of all, only when both ears are heard at the same time, it is possible to have a sense of auditory direction, in order to have auditory orientation and positioning ability. The same sound is obviously larger with both ears, so it can reduce the output of the hearing aid, which is equivalent to the “real hearing” of the 6 decibel. Thanks to the “stereo effect”, the use of hearing aids in both ears can improve the patient’s speech resolution. For example, in a noisy environment, binaural hearing can suppress and attenuate the noise intensity and improve the user’s understanding of the language sound. In a reverberant acoustic environment, the effect of wearing a hearing aid with both ears is more prominent.

Secondly, wearing a hearing aid with both ears allows the user to hear a weaker sound. Because it conforms to human hearing habits, wearing a hearing aid with both ears makes the user feel more natural and comfortable. The binaural complementation effectively reduces distortion, makes the signal sound more realistic and clear, and is more prone to spatial balance. Listening to both ears at the same time makes the sound sound consistent and rich, thus improving the quality of the sound heard. Both ears make “use”, which can effectively avoid the decline of the disused hearing function caused by the weak signal stimulation. Because of this, many elderly deaf patients who once used binaural hearing aids can no longer tolerate the defects of single ear hearing aids.
