Fitting Ranges...Is an Open Fit Aid Appropriate for My Hearing Loss?How do I know if an open fit hearing aid is right for me? Open fit hearing instruments fit a fairly wide range of losses. However, they are not appropriate for all types of hearing losses.
When open fit aids were first introduced to the market several years ago, they were primarily designed for patients with high frequency hearing loss. While this is generally true today, some devices can fit a deep hearing loss, even in the lows.
It's important that you get the correct instument for your degree of hearing loss.
