My hearing declined several years ago to a level that could not be ignored, and I began using conventional hearing aids. They helped but sound quality seemed tinny and unpleasant , and I continued to struggle understanding conversation. My experience with Earlens devices and the people at Virsono that custom fit and adjust them has been very positive. These are kind, knowledgeable, highly competent people and the devices enhance hearing with a full and natural sound quality. Restoration of adequate hearing has allowed me to continue working and to maintain social connections to a much greater degree than would otherwise be possible. I am pleased to have this opportunity to endorse Virsono and Earlens. They do cost more than conventional hearing aids, but to me they would be a bargain at twice the price.
