Hearing aid aftercare package

Hearing aid aftercare package

With our hearing aid aftercare package, you have access to a range of products and services that will ensure we’re taking good care of your hearing aids and ear health. Let’s take a look at what’s included.

A full hearing check and assessment

The first step is for our accredited audiologists to have a thorough check of your hearing in store. This will provide the basic information we need to determine if a hearing aid would be beneficial. Rest assured we don’t suggest hearing aids if you don’t need them and we won’t recommend models that don’t suit your hearing loss or lifestyle needs.

If you decide to go ahead with purchasing a hearing aid, we’ll do a thorough hearing assessment which helps us determine the style and model of hearing aid you prefer/require and then programme it to your exact requirements. We’ll also ask you some questions to make sure the hearing aid you choose works with your lifestyle too.

Two digital hearing aids

Offering the latest hearing technology through our own Specsavers Advance and branded ranges, our hearing aid ranges are produced by world leading manufacturers – but come with a Specsavers price tag. Our prices are always for two hearing aids.

Aftercare Included

For your peace of mind, after you’ve bought your hearing aids, we will be on hand whenever you need assistance with them. We want to make sure you are fully supported on your journey with us, you are also free to visit us for advice on your overall ear health, hearing aid maintenance and any adjustments to your hearing aid settings.

Four years’ supply of batteries

For non-rechargeable hearing aids, you’ll need to change your hearing aid batteries. With our aftercare service, you have access to a four-year supply of batteries at no additional cost, so you never miss out on the sounds that matter the most.

Choice of colours and fitting styles

From invisible to discreet receiver-in-canal styles, there’s something to suit every style and hearing loss. Our hearing aids are available in a range of colours to blend into your hair or skin tone, or you can go bolder with fashionable metallic styles available on some models.

100-day money-back guarantee

We want you to feel confident with your purchase, to be able to try the latest technology and realise how much benefit a new pair of hearing aids can bring to your life. To do that, you need to wear them, which is why we offer a 100-day money back guarantee (the hearing aids must be in the same condition to how they were sold with all packaging and accessories intact)**.

Four-year warranty on aids and wireless accessories

We offer repairs for your hearing aids and wireless accessories (like TV streamers) at no charge for four years from date of purchase.

Our hearing aid warranty also covers your hearing aid(s) and wireless accessories, against malfunction, breakdown and faulty workmanship.

Pre-fit wax removal*

When you come in for your hearing assessment, we’ll see if you need wax removal before your hearing aids are fitted to make sure your ears are clear and ready. If you do need wax removal, we’ll give you a voucher worth the cost of earwax removal to go towards your hearing aids. Available for private customers only.

Remote Assistance (RemoteCare and remote fine-tuning)

If you are in need of hearing advice or support, we can provide you with a RemoteCare appointment service either as a phone or video call between you and one of our audiologists.

We also provide a remote fine-tuning service where we can remotely change the settings of your hearing aids through your mobile phone, meaning you don’t need to come to the store to have small adjustments made to your devices. Making it a safe and convenient way to alter your hearing aids.

How hearing aids work

Hearing aids work by enhancing the sounds around you to make them louder and clearer.

Hearing aids work by enhancing the sounds around you to make them louder and clearer. There are three main parts in a hearing aid – a microphone, amplifier, and speaker.

Sound waves are picked up by the microphone, which then converts them to electrical signals and then sends them on to the amplifier. The amplifier strengthens the signals and increases the volume.

Find out more

Finally, the speaker converts the signals back to sound and passes it to the inner ear, and on to the brain where it will understand the sound.

Modern digital hearing aids are designed to identify and amplify speech rather than background noise. So with the right advice and prescription, most people find they can hear well again in most if not all situations.

How to use hearing aids

Your hearing aids have been programmed to meet your individual hearing needs. When you remove your hearing aids, you might feel

Your hearing aids have been programmed to meet your individual hearing needs. When you remove your hearing aids, you might feel your natural hearing is muffled, but that’s just because you’ve become more used to hearing things clearly with them in. If you wear them a little every day, you’ll soon get used to having them in your ears – even if it does take a week or two.

To get maximum benefits from your aids, please read the manufacturers guide that comes with them. Following your hearing aid fitting, you’ll get a follow-up appointment, so it’s useful to take down any experiences you’ve had adjusting to them.

Getting the best from your hearing

Start with quieter, more familiar situations – like conversations with one person or listening to the radio – then move onto more

  • Start with quieter, more familiar situations – like conversations with one person or listening to the radio – then move onto more challenging ones.
  • When you start holding conversations with multiple people, or going to busy, outdoor environments, you might find new noises daunting or hard to follow. This will change as your brain adapts to the increase in noise.
  • Make sure you understand your hearing aid’s settings and programmes so you can tweak them to achieve the best possible results.
  • And remember, your hearing care professional is always happy to help you, so if you want any advice, or have any questions, just ask.

Using hearing loop systems

Hearing loop systems are installed in busy or difficult listening situations, like cinemas and public buildings, to help you hear more

  • Hearing loop systems are installed in busy or difficult listening situations, like cinemas and public buildings, to help you hear more clearly.
  • Modern hearing aids are designed to pick up sound from loop systems and some telephones also have an available loop service.
  • Remember to turn your hearing aids back to a normal programme mode when you’re out of range from a loop service.

Hearing aid domes

A hearing aid dome is the small plastic piece of your hearing aid that goes in the ear, typically made of silicone.

A hearing aid dome is the small plastic piece of your hearing aid that goes in the ear, typically made of silicone.

A proper fitting dome can make a huge difference in both comfort and quality whilst wearing your hearing aid. So if yours ever feel uncomfortable or you have any issues with their fitting, pop in to see one of our audiologists and we can sort it out for you.

There are two types:

Open Style

  • Allows sound to pass through.
  • Helps to stop what’s called the occlusion effect – which creates a similar hollow-like sound as if you’ve put your fingers in your ears while talking.
  • Still receives some sound through the ear, so can sound more natural for some people.

Closed Style

  • Reduces sound from outside the hearing aid to further boost the sound level.
  • Often better for people suffering for a more severe level of hearing loss.
