I am pretty much deaf in the left ear, well, except for the loud ringing , right ear is better but high frequencies are gone. I understand that the left ear is the first to go if you shoot off the right shoulder. I worked 30 plus years in a steel mill so I get workman's compensation to pay a big chunk on a disability claim . Been wearing a pair of Oticon Alta's , with the bluetooth thingy, they are customizable for volume and frequency response, in quiet situations they are great but if the wife tries talking to me with the TV going it just becomes a jumbled mess of words, same in a dept store with the muzak going. Last appointment with the eye doctor we got to talking and I said that the hearing aids were like a set of glasses that made everything bigger but still blurry, that pretty much sums up their usefulness in a busy environment.
