No one wants to admit to hearing loss, but when it interferes with being able to communicate easily and comfortably with friends, family and co-workers, it becomes a disability. Without help, people with hearing loss can isolate themselves from others, reducing their overall quality of life, according to a 2019 article in the New England Journal of Medicine.

The first step in getting help is seeing an audiologist, a trained medical professional who will perform hearing tests to determine your level of hearing loss, talk to you about your lifestyle and recommend hearing aid options that can address your specific hearing problems.

Among the many choices for hearing devices are Horizon hearing aids, which are designed for younger, active baby boomers new to using hearing aids. Read on for our comprehensive review of Horizon hearing aids.
