AMPLIFY YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE

EarScript helps to find a hearing aid for every need and budget

Purchasing a hearing aid can be a life-altering experience. The joy of hearing sounds clearly for the first time in years or being able to effectively communicate with friends and family will bring joy and significantly increase one’s quality of life.

But many people buy hearing aids and end up not using them regularly. This could be for a variety of reasons: ill-fitting devices, hearing aids that don’t work properly, ones that distort the volume or quality of sound, ones that are uncomfortable to wear, or are difficult to insert and remove.

Don’t let your hearing aid end up in the sock drawer! Hearing aids should be part of everyday life. They should amplify the quality of one’s life, not be something users have to worry over and be frustrated about.

This is where EarScript can help. EarScript is a patent-pending iPad application allowing patients to compare different hearing aids from a variety of manufacturers.

“It’s important for consumers to be aware that not all products are suitable for them or their level of hearing loss simply because hearing aid centres claim this is the case,” says EarScript founder Andre Marcoux, a local audiologist and researcher.

Licensed to hearing health care clinicians, EarScript allows patients to hear and compare various makes and models of hearing aids specifically for their level of hearing loss. The sound quality of each hearing aid can be appraised in a variety of listening situations, as simple or complex as those encountered in everyday life by the patient.

Thanks to EarScript, patients will look forward to wearing their hearing aids every day and can amplify the quality of life.
