What are the best types of hearing aids?
The best type depends on your specific hearing loss, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Here are the main types to consider:
- Behind-the-Ear (BTE): These are suitable for a wide range of hearing loss levels, from mild to profound. BTE devices are durable, easy to handle, and offer various features, including Bluetooth connectivity.
- Receiver-in-Canal (RIC): Similar to BTEs but with a more discreet design, they place the speaker directly in the ear canal, providing clearer sound for moderate to severe hearing loss.
- In-the-Ear (ITE): Custom-moulded to fit the ear’s outer portion, ITE devices are more visible but offer powerful amplification for moderate to severe hearing loss.
- In-the-Canal (ITC) & Completely-in-Canal (CIC): These are small custom devices that sit completely in the ear canal. They’re ideal for those with mild to moderate hearing loss, though their small size limits additional features.
- Invisible-in-the-Canal (IIC): These are the smallest, most discreet hearing devices available, designed to sit deeper in the ear canal, making them nearly invisible. They are best for mild to moderate hearing loss and provide a very discreet solution.
- Lyric: Lyric is the only completely invisible hearing aid, which sits very deep in the ear, approximately 4mm from the eardrum. It stays in the ear for a few months at a time, without the need for cleaning, charging, or replacing batteries.

How much do hearing aids cost?
The cost can vary significantly depending on the type, its features, and the level of customisation required. On average, hearing devices in Perth typically range from $1,500 to $5,000 per device.
Here are some factors that influence the price:
- Technology level: This is the most influential factor. Basic models may be more affordable but lack advanced features like Bluetooth connectivity or noise reduction, which are common in higher-end models.
- Style: Smaller, more discreet hearing devices, such as completely-in-canal (CIC) or invisible-in-canal (IIC) devices, may cost more due to their advanced design.
- Customisation: Tailor-made devices to fit your specific ear shape or hearing needs can increase the price.
- Additional services: The cost may also include professional services such as hearing tests, fittings, follow-up appointments, and ongoing support.
Some health insurance plans or government subsidies may also help reduce out-of-pocket expenses.
Hearing aid benefits
✔Improved Communication: They help you hear speech more clearly, making conversations with family, friends, and colleagues easier and more enjoyable.
✔ Enhanced Quality of Life: By restoring your ability to hear everyday sounds, hearing devices reduce feelings of isolation and frustration, helping you stay connected to the world around you.
✔ Better Cognitive Function: Studies suggest that untreated hearing loss can lead to cognitive decline over time. Hearing devices help keep your brain engaged, reducing the risk of memory problems and mental fatigue.
✔ Increased Safety: Being able to hear warning sounds like alarms, sirens, and traffic can improve your personal safety in everyday situations.
✔ Customisable to Your Needs: Modern hearing devices come with advanced features such as Bluetooth connectivity, noise reduction, and tinnitus masking, which can be tailored to your lifestyle and specific hearing needs.
✔ Improved Mental Health: By reducing social isolation and improving communication, hearing devices can alleviate anxiety, depression, and feelings of loneliness.
Hearing aids: What to expect.
The fitting process typically involves several key steps to ensure the best fit, performance, and user comfort. Here’s what to expect:
- Hearing Assessment: The process begins with a comprehensive hearing test conducted by an audiologist. This test identifies your level of hearing loss and helps determine which hearing device is most suitable for you.
- Hearing Device Selection: Based on your hearing test results and lifestyle needs, the audiologist will help you choose the right type. Factors such as size, style, features, and technology levels will be considered.
- Custom Fitting: For certain types, such as in-the-ear (ITE) or completely-in-canal (CIC) devices, a custom mould of your ear may be taken to ensure a perfect fit. This mould ensures comfort and optimal sound quality.
- Programming: Once the hearing device is ready, the audiologist will program it according to your specific hearing loss profile. Modern hearing devices can be fine-tuned to amplify specific frequencies where you need the most help.
- Initial Fitting and Adjustment: During this step, the hearing device will be fitted to your ears. The audiologist will adjust the settings and make sure the devices fit comfortably and securely. You’ll be taught how to use and care for your hearing devices, including inserting, removing, and cleaning them.
- Follow-Up Visits: After the initial fitting, follow-up appointments are usually scheduled to fine-tune the hearing device further based on your experiences and feedback. This ensures the devices are performing optimally and comfortably.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hearing Aids in Perth
How do I know if I need hearing aids?
Here are some signs that may indicate hearing loss:
- Difficulty hearing in conversations: Do you often ask people to repeat themselves or struggle to follow conversations, especially in noisy environments or over the phone?
- Turning up the volume: If you frequently increase the volume on your TV, radio, or phone beyond what others find comfortable, this could be a sign of hearing loss.
- Struggling in group settings: Do you find it challenging to engage in group discussions or hear clearly in crowded places like restaurants or meetings?
- Ringing in the ears (Tinnitus): Constant ringing, buzzing, or hissing in your ears (tinnitus) can sometimes be linked to hearing loss, and hearing devices may help alleviate this symptom.
- Feeling isolated: Hearing loss can cause frustration and lead to social withdrawal or isolation, as it becomes more difficult to participate in everyday interactions.
- Missing everyday sounds: Are you missing out on common sounds, such as doorbells, alarms, or birds chirping? This could indicate the need for hearing devices.
How long do hearing aids last?
They typically last between 4 to 7 years, depending on the type, brand, and how well they are maintained. Several factors can influence the lifespan:
- Quality and Technology: Higher-end hearing devices with advanced technology may have a longer lifespan due to better build quality and more durable components.
- Maintenance: Regular cleaning, battery changes, and professional check-ups help extend the life of your hearing devices. Proper care prevents issues caused by earwax, moisture, and general wear and tear.
- Daily Use: Hearing devices used consistently every day may wear out faster than those used less frequently. However, consistent use is important for hearing health, so this factor is balanced by proper care.
- Technological Advancements: While hearing devices can last for several years, you may choose to upgrade sooner if new technologies become available that better suit your needs, such as improved sound quality or wireless connectivity.
