Hearing Aids at Universal Audiology
At Universal Audiology, we continually bring in the latest hearing aids from each of the top manufacturers. Hearing aid technology is growing exponentially. Hearing aids are now incredibly discreet and even come in “nearly invisible” options. Many hearing aids also feature advanced technology including Bluetooth connectivity, rechargeability, and automatic functioning. We carry hearing aids from the leading manufacturers, including EarQ, Oticon, Signia, and Starkey.
Hearing aids have many features and can now be water-resistant or even waterproof. They can provide tinnitus relief through masking technology. They can connect to your TV and play the sound directly into your ears. Even your smartphone can connect to your hearing aids so that you can make quick adjustments to their settings and customize your experience in different listening environments.
