Sooner is better
Over time, reduced stimulation to your ears and brain can actually impair the brain’s ability to process sound and recognise speech. The more speech recognition deteriorates, the more difficult it may be to recover. When you can’t hear what’s going on around you, your mental sharpness suffers.1
The sooner you take action, the sooner you are able to put a stop to the negative effects of hearing loss, and the sooner you may begin to regain sharpness, confidence and control.
