Hi All
My mum’s audiogram is attached (hopefully). I presume this suggests a severe to profound, but treatable, hearing loss.
She is currently using a Specsavers Advance RIC hearing aid (rebranded Unitron Moxi Fit) with custom molds plus a Roger On.
She still has a good deal of trouble hearing normal or raised conversation even in quiet situations.
When I ask our Specsavers clinician if there is anything we can do to help her, he shrugs his shoulders and says that I need to understand that my mother has lost the ability to hear at these frequencies and little can be done to improve that. This doesn’t quite make sense to me.
I have asked the clinician if we might consider a more powerful BTE aid but he hasn’t replied. I suspect he finds me troublesome!
Does anyone have any advice? Her loss looks treatable to me, but I am not an expert of course.
