生活百科：耳鳴與耳朵的保護(hù)系列之二十三——如何使用助聽(tīng)器

　　Modern hearing aids are wonderful devices of technology that reflect everything that we enjoy every day in our stereo systems and our iPods and our cameras and our televisions.

　　All of this phenomenal digital technology can now be wrapped up into a tiny little amplifier that you can either wear in your ear or behind your ear.

　　Hearing aids do not always restore hearing to normal, but they almost always make hearing better and often will restore hearing to normal. Hearing aids are quite comfortable to wear and come in many different sizes and shapes and varieties.

　　And if you're thinking that you need a hearing aid, you should either see your ear, nose and throat physician or a licensed audiologist who can do appropriate hearing tests and discuss with you the various types of hearing aids that are available.
