University lecturer James Jackson warns that not getting treatment can lead to social isolation.
Dr James Jackson said there was a "stigma" associated with hearing loss because it is linked to the ageing process
A 2019 study suggested people waited an average of between seven and 10 years after first experiencing symptoms before seeking help. "You don’t want to admit you’re getting old. If your hair goes grey, you might dye it. If people’s hearing starts failing, they might try to cover for it. Dr Jackson warned, however, that not using the devices can make the situation worse, as the brain gradually forgets functions it doesn't use.
