Imagine this: It’s a typical morning in Chennai, the streets are buzzing with honking cars, vendors selling the things, and a faint sound of bell ringing in a temple in a distance. Inside a cozy house , Mr. Manikandan, 60 year old retired teacher, sits at the breakfast table with his family. His granddaughter is excitedly telling him about her school play, but Mr. Kapoor only catches bits and pieces of her story. He nods and smiles, but deep down, he feels disconnected. This is the reality for most of Indians living with untreated hearing loss. But what if I told you that a simple step—using hearing aids early—could change everything?

Hi, we are hearing expert from Digibionic hearing center, and today, we want to talk about some important essence of living – addressing hearing loss early. In India, we often doesn’t even care about hearing loss as it is normal part of aging. “வயசனா காது கேட்காமத்தா போகும்” we say. But let me tell you, ignoring it can have serious consequences.

Hearing loss not only affects your ear, it also have significant effect on your brain. When your ears stop sending sound signals to your brain, your brain starts to ‘forget’ how to process those sounds. This is called auditory deprivation. The longer you wait to treat hearing loss, the harder it becomes for your brain to adapt, even after you start using hearing aids.

In most cases, a person seeks for hearing assistance is when he develops a moderate or sever losses, making the conversation difficult. When they visit us after developing moderate to severe hearing loss, they request us or insist on offering an invisible hearing aids. The fact is, invisible hearing aids can’t effectively address their level of hearing loss. If they had used invisible hearing aids at the initial stage of their hearing loss, it would have suited them. But now, their hearing loss has worsened, and they can no longer use invisible-type hearing aids.

It is advisable to use hearing aid at the early stage so that hearing loss degradation can be slow down with hearing aids. At this stage (Mild Hearing loss level) it’s not like they can’t hear at all But they misses lower sounds like wind, bird voices and sound sound like “F, S, TH”. People tends to ignore this early sine and try compensate it will higher volume or talking louder. Which proves to be one of the biggest mistakes they make. This mild hearing loss often progresses to moderate or severe hearing loss within a short gap of 1 or 2 years.

For the people, we always explains that, hearing aids are like glasses for their ears. They amplify sounds, making it easier for your brain to process them. Modern hearing aids, like the ones we offer at Digibionic, are small, discreet, invisible and packed with advanced features. They can filter out background noise, connect to your smartphone, and even adjust automatically to different environments. Hearing aid designs are very much evolved with advanced features and designs. Modern hearing aids are designed like they can’t be recognized that they were hearing aids. Many people worry about the stigma of wearing hearing aids, but today’s devices are so advanced that no one will even notice. And the benefits? They’re life-changing.

People don’t understand that, the hearing loss in not only connected to their ears, it also plays a vital role on your whole lifestyle. When hearing loss is left untreated, it doesn’t just affect your ability to hear. It can lead to social isolation, depression, and even cognitive decline.
