Deaf Aids Why deaf people wear hearing aids? It would obviously help someone who is hard of hearing, but not totally deaf. However, why people who are flat, totally deaf wear hearing aids? What should we do if they are unable to hear something. LoL. There are different classifications to be deaf ... it depends on where the disability occurs. if there is a problem with your eardrum, so that they could if a hearing aid so they can return to some of the sounds. but if there is a problem with the nerve that connects the ear drum to the brain they would not wear a hearing aid because it does not help. Even people who call themselves deaf may have residual hearing. They may only be able to hear very low tones vaguely like the beating of a drum or a car horn. It helps to have some knowledge of the activity around them. Maybe it allows them to hear loud sounds, like a fire truck or police car coming down the street. This way, if they cross the street, they can leave the track. I can not speak for everyone, but I can speak in general terms. Most deaf people wear hearing aids because they were wearing them all their lives. Doctors believe that hearing aids help everyone with a kind of hearing loss. Doctors try (and parents of deaf children) to make deaf people more like people hearing. They want them to take part in the hearing world. Therefore, the entire speech therapy, and tests they run. I think, and this is only my opinion, we must let them be deaf, to teach sign language, and forget all this ridiculous speech therapy for people who can not really learn to speak intelligibly. There are deaf people that no matter how much treatment they receive, they will not be understood by the average person hearing. I could go on and on about this forever, but to summarize it all, most people wear hearing aids deaf to integrate into the hearing world as much as possible. BUT there are many deaf adults who refuse to wear hearing aids or talk to everyone. It depends what you mean. IF some deep and connects to the head of the HA, but depends on people who are deep can hear soft sounds and only way is to HA depends only on the situation. you can not lump us all together with the loss of hearing itself. We all have different levels of different combinations. Iam deeply about 98% loss. I'm still somewhat CI, but refuse to use it now and havent for the last 4 years. It depends. Well, I'm hard of hearing and wear hearing aids, but I have worked with many deaf people is that they have no measurable hearing where amplification would be an advantage if you can still hear and profound hearing or Perhaps feeling sounds, but to the extent that the word does not use. It does exactly what it entails. Posted on September 3, 2010.
