You’re not quite sure why, but you’ve been feeling cranky lately. Well, it was aggravating earlier today when you felt left out of the meeting at work. Your daughter got up and abruptly left the house after becoming irritated when you kept asking her to turn the volume on the TV up. What’s the deal
Hearing loss is usually a slow process, making it easy to disregard the subtle changes in your ability to hear sounds. Unlike children, who get routine hearing tests in school, adults seldom even think of scheduling an appointment. You wouldn’t disregard a decline in your vision, so why wouldn’t you track your hearing health? It’s
Have you ever misplaced your earbuds? (Or, perhaps, accidentally left them in the pocket of a pullover that went through the laundry?) Suddenly, your morning jog is a million times more boring. You have a dull and dreary train ride to work. And the sound quality of your virtual meetings suffers considerably. The old saying
