Adam went to his Audi yesterday and was tested w/his HA's and w/out them... and we're getting a near 'normal' hearing range w/his right aid (Oticon Vigo Pro) but he's still profound w/his left... so his Audi mentioned maybe trying him on a "Power Aid"?? He's profoundly deaf so what will this accomplish on that side?? His current aid is maxed out...
Sorry to sound so 'stupid' but this is all new to me-- I guess I just figured since he was profound on that side we'd never get much aided or unaided on his audiograms...
So what exactly is a power aid anyhow?? All this is confusing to me!!
Oh and w/out his aids his right side is still moderate w/a possible downward slope in the high frequencies... Adam started getting squirmy and it was hard to finish the test w/him climbing on me! His attention span is still so short LOL.
Thanks for any answers you guys can provide me...
