"I told myself some time ago that I have this disability, I need the hearing aids, it's going to take an adjustment but I'm going to make them work because they're going to make my life easier," explains Tobias. "I've upgraded my hearing aids and I'm now wearing what are called digital hearing aids that are pro- grammed particularly for my hearing problems. I can also make some adjustments on them but they're still not perfect and they are expensive, costing close to $3,500." Tobias finds that not wearing them or turning them off when she attends sporting events or dines at noisy restaurants works well because the aids pick up some background noises and amplify those along with every- thing else. According to Dr. Steven Marks, chief of otolaryngology at DMC/Sinai Hospital, the major problems of hearing loss take place when people can't hear what'd taking place in a normal environment. It's not unusual for people not to be aware that they have hearing loss, because it develops gradually. More- over, many people frequently teach themselves lip reading skills, often unconsciously, and become accus- tomed to the absence of sound. Bernie Miller, age 75, has been wearing hearing aids for three years. He's purchased his second set and admits that he still can't hear every- thing. "This set is a bit smaller than my first pair," explains Miller. "I clean them daily and every three weeks or so I change the batteries. They're a pain in the neck but I need them. Now when I drive passengers back and forth to Metro Airport, I can hear the directions they're giving me." Technical improvements are making hearing aids better, but some users are disappointed because their expecta- tions are unrealistic or the hearing-aid salespeople were not well trained. The consensus of users and med- ical professionals: get a medical and hearing examination before buying any products. Talk to friends who wear hearing aids and find out if they're satisfied with their hearing aids and the sales people they work with. Above all, be alert to misleading claims and buy from a reputable dis- penser. ❑ Notes Dr. Emanuel Tanay, clinical profes- sor of psychiatry at Wayne State Uni- versity, received an award for his life- time of achievement and contribu- tions in the field of psychiatry and the law.
