The Power of Hearing Aids
A great story about hearing aids appeared on CBS news recently. They estimated that only 20 percent of adults with hearing loss actually use hearing aids. This number has certainly increased over the years and will continue to increase with the amazing new technology and miniturization of the current hearing aids. Unfortunately, insurance doesn't cover hearing aids just like it doesn't cover glasses for most patients. However, hearing aids can reopen the world of hearing to most patients with regular hearing loss from aging. Everyone remembers the wierd looking giant hearing aids that everyone could see from a mile away, but most of the newer hearing aids fit inside the ear and are custom fit with molds.
Current hearing aids are even compatible with you phone and work like Apple Airpods. Generic low cost hearing amplification systems are also available, but the technology in these devices is much older and cruder and they are not the modern customized tiny devices with noise cancellation and other advanced features to improve your hearing. NJ Eye and Ear should be your first stop to have your ears examined, your hearing tested, and to look at getting a custom fit hearing aid with the currently most advanced features to help you hear your best!

January is Glaucoma Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about one of the leading causes of irreversible vision loss in the United States. Often called the “silent thief of sight,” glaucoma can develop without noticeable symptoms in its early stages, making regular eye exams in New Jersey essential for protecting long-term vision health. More than four million Americans are currently living with glaucoma, and many do not realize they have it. The condition damages the optic nerve, typically due to increased eye pressure, and often begins by affecting peripheral vision. Without early detection and treatment, this vision loss can become permanent. Who Is at Risk for Glaucoma? While anyone can develop glaucoma, certain factors can increase your risk, including: Being over the age of 60 Having a family history of glaucoma Belonging to certain ethnic backgrounds Living with diabetes or high eye pressure Understanding your personal risk and scheduling routine glaucoma screenings in New Jersey can make a meaningful difference in preserving your sight. The Importance of Comprehensive Eye Exams The most effective way to detect glaucoma early is through a comprehensive dilated eye exam. This exam allows your eye care provider to measure eye pressure, evaluate the optic nerve, and check for subtle changes in your field of vision—often before symptoms appear.
