Tinnitus

Tinnitus refers to the perception of sound in the ears or head—often described as ringing, buzzing, roaring, or hissing—when no external sound is present. It commonly occurs alongside hearing loss, and for many people, it can be frustrating or even distressing.

How Hearing Aids Can Help

Hearing aids may help reduce the perception of tinnitus by:

• Amplifying ambient sounds, which can distract the brain from the internal noise of tinnitus

• Reducing listening effort, especially in people with hearing loss

• Easing stress, which can often worsen tinnitus symptoms

  
  

Many modern hearing aids include specialized tinnitus features, such as sound therapy programs or customizable masking noise, to further relieve symptoms.

If you’re experiencing persistent tinnitus, especially with hearing difficulty, a hearing evaluation can help identify the cause and explore treatment options tailored to you.
