Talk to most hearing health professionals and you'll hear how important good hearing is to your overall health, quality of life. What you are less likely to hear is how untreated hearing loss can permanently affect your brain's ability to interpret words, even after hearing is restored to normal levels with hearing Aids.What most people don't know and what many hearing health professionals rarely point out is that hearing is divided into two major functions. The first is the ear's ability to detect sounds and the second is the brain's ability to turn the sound signals from the ears into meaningful words. That's why people who have a hearing loss often say even wearing a hearing aid I can hear but I can't understand what people are saying.
