Attached are two images showing the yellow-colored mold for my CIC (or Completely In Canal) hearing aid. The guy assured me the device won’t pop out and that it I supposed to be water-proof and automatically adjusts to the environment. It will be delivered in three weeks and then the fun can begin!
For one hour, I got my free “electronic hearing screening by [a] licensed hearing professional”; didn’t “see [my] ear canal on a color TV screen with the use of their new video camara” but got a demonstration of the brand new “Micro-Tech Digital Hearing Aid”!
With the help of my two elderly parents, they invested in the best (or elite), offering 16 channels/16 bands. By paying that much, I’ve gotten the computerized “Micro-Tech Axio iM32”, which is programmed to my hearing needs and can be reprogrammed for the years to come!
After sitting in the sound-proof booth with both both beeps and words, I learned that my hearing is “approximately” 35 to 40 percent below normal hearing range. That’s 5% for the low range and 50% for the high range, which is at the 70 threshold. Anything with a range reaching the 90 threshold cannot be helped with hearing aids.
