How does a hearing aid work?
Sound is carried across three different hearing aid parts:
There’s more than one factor to consider when choosing a hearing aid.

There are many high-quality, reliable hearing aids on the market. Each brand or model is unique in its own way, and it can be difficult knowing where to start. We’ve brought together the most important information about the brands and models we offer at Audika. This way, you can get a quick overview of all your different available options.
Hearing aids have gone through major technological innovations during the past decade. Today's digital hearing aids deliver better sound quality and can make your life easier through intelligent, high-tech features.
Hearing aids are not one-size-fits-all solutions and online hearing aid reviews can be subjective. We want to help you find the best hearing aid, one that’s tailored to you. To do this, we’ll help you carefully consider the following:
The price of a hearing aid can vary depending on where you live and what product you choose, but the price generally ranges from $1,000 to $4,000 per unit depending on the specific style and features included. In general, the more advanced the technology and features, the higher the price. Our hearing care professionals are skilled in balancing your hearing needs with your budget to find the right solution for you.
A pair of hearing aids costs about $4.25 per day over 4 years, which is approximately the price of a daily latte.
Insurance plans and medical coverage can also have an effect on the final price of the hearing aids. The more advanced technology and features a hearing aid offers, the higher the price. Finding the right price point for you is a matter of weighing the costs and advantages of hearing aid features and technologies and then matching these with your needs and budget.
You don’t need a referral from a doctor to receive a free consultation or to purchase a hearing aid at one of our clinics.
We are happy to help you understand the different payment plans and funding options that are available to you.
A hearing aid is a small medical device designed to improve one’s hearing ability by amplifying sounds. It helps people with hearing loss hear better and maintain an active and social life. Today’s hearing aids have become more technologically advanced and smaller than ever before.
There are different types of hearing aids available. The most common type is placed behind the ear, and there are also hearing aids that fit inside your ear canal. There is also a broad selection of hearing aid brands and models to choose from. Hearing aids are not one-size-fits-all solutions, and the right type of hearing aid for you will depend on several factors. When you visit your local HearingLife clinic, we can help you to find the hearing aid that best suits your needs.
Buying a hearing aid online or over the counter without a hearing test might seem to be the easiest and quickest option. However, over the counter options do not typically give you the opportunity of working with an experienced medical professional who is licensed to dispense the best quality and trusted products.
If you have a hearing loss, you should consider getting hearing aids. You can read about the most common signs of hearing loss to see if you can recognize any of them. We recommend seeking treatment as soon as the hearing loss is detected since untreated hearing loss can have a negative impact on your life. Wearing hearing aids is a proactive solution in treating hearing loss early and improving your quality of life. If you suspect that you might have a hearing loss, you can book a hearing test with one of our hearing care professionals to learn if you might benefit from wearing hearing aids.
The average hearing aid price ranges from $1,200 to $4,400 per unit in Canada. This means that a premium pair of hearing aids - priced at $3,000 per hearing aid - would cost about $4.25 per day (when paid off over the course of 4 years). This is about the same price as a latte!
You can try our latest hearing aid by signing up for a free, 30-day trial with no obligations. When you taking your hearing aids home and wear them as a part of your everyday routine, it will help you determine if they are the right hearing aids for you.
The best hearing aid for one person might not be the best hearing aid for another. There are several things to consider when choosing the best hearing aid for your specific needs, such as hearing loss level and lifestyle preferences. When you visit a local HearingLife clinic for an in-depth hearing evaluation, a hearing care professional will identify your level of hearing ability and recommend the most optimal treatment option for your hearing needs. You can also check out our guide to finding the best hearing aid to learn about which hearing aids might be a good fit for you.
About 6 in 10 people experience tinnitus relief from wearing hearing aids, but the effectiveness varies from person to person. If your hearing is within normal limits and you experience hearing loss, you can also try a hearing aid that only includes a tinnitus sound generator (and no sound amplification). You can work with your hearing care professional to evaluate the right solutions for your tinnitus.
In most cases, no. In rare cases, someone with vertigo may experience that hearing aids cause pressure changes in the inner ear which affect their balance even more (vertigo is a condition where imbalances in the pressure in the inner ear cause dizziness and balance issues). As mentioned, such cases are rare. Talk to your hearing care professional to learn how to adapt to your hearing aids.
Since hearing loss develops gradually, it’s not always easy to know when your hearing changes. Studying the signs of hearing loss can help you recognize the problem, and receiving a free hearing test from a hearing care professional can help you decide whether hearing devices are warranted. Remember: annual hearing tests are as vital as getting your eyes and teeth checked. When to seek help
It is recommended that people with hearing loss get their hearing tested roughly on an annual basis - or sooner if they feel that there have been any changes in their hearing. Additionally, hearing devices should be replaced approximately every three years.
