What are the most important features that I should seek out when looking for a hearing aid?
These include multiple microphones (which improve speech understanding in noisy environments); 100% digital technology that reacts quick enough to turn the volume up for crucial speech sounds and turns it down for those sounds that are consider background-type sounds; multiple programs so that you can change the manner in which the hearing aid processes sounds as you move from one environment to the other; and more than one processing channel so the amplification can be better tailored to your specific hearing loss.
