Over the years, I've had patients who visited their neighbourhood hearing aid shops and seen the same newspaper article. After being told that they had a hearing loss, they were all given the same message: Buy hearing aids now and dementia.
With the growing popularity of online shopping websites such as Lazada or Shopee, consumers are choosing to purchase health products online. This includes supplements, medicines and even hearing aids.
A study conducted in 2017 shows uncooked rice as a good alternative to commercial desiccants.
While there are many types of hearing aids sold in Singapore there is no industry standard to hearing aids names. This makes making comparisons between hearing aid models confusing.
