How does a hearing problem affect day to day life?<\/h4>\n

A person suffering from a hearing problem must make a special effort to be part of society. People around them have to talk louder and, as time goes by, may even stop trying to carry on a conversation with them. This can create a situation in which the person with a hearing impediment may be left out of the conversation.
\nHearing rehabilitation helps the hearing impaired to communicate better with those around them. This improvement in communication abilities has positive effects on all aspects of life: within the family, in social life, in education, in relationships and in work.
\nPoor hearing doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that the person is deaf but u=it does mean that the dynamics of life change. At \u201cOptical Center\u201d we will help you cope with this change.<\/p>\n

What do we do?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Regular check-ups<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

According to a 2013 survey, 16% (some 879 thousand people) and more experience some hearing difficulty.
\nThe number of people with a hearing problem increases with age \u2013 more than half (55%) of the over 75\u2019s have a hearing difficulty of some sort and 16% have a severe hearing problem or cannot hear at all.
\nThat\u2019s why we offer all the over 50\u2019s who approach the Foundation a free, 10 minute hearing test so that we can monitor the state of their hearing. It\u2019s important to monitor and treat hearing problems otherwise the nerves could degenerate. If this occurs, even if, in the end, a hearing aid is used and the hearing becomes normal, speech may be impaired. That\u2019s why you should think of the future and get a regular checkup. We invite you to the \u201cOptical Center\u201d Foundation\u2019s clinic, the only place in Israel where you\u2019ll get a free checkup.<\/p>\n

Finding the right hearing aid<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • The foundation provides hearing aids at a token price.<\/li>\n
  • The hearing aids we provide are the most technologically advanced available today.<\/li>\n
  • Personal attention and follow up services to help you get the most efficient use of your hearing aid.<\/li>\n
  • One month trial period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    It\u2019s important to take care of your hearing aid. That\u2019s why we\u2019re here, not only to provide you with a hearing aid but also to guide and help you for as long as the device works.<\/p>\n

    Finding the right accessories<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • The Foundation supplies a range of accessories and aids to improve your daily life. For example: amplified door bell, alarm clock, TV amplifier, Bluetooth connector to connect your telephone to your hearing aid and more.<\/li>\n
    • The Foundation provides external amplifiers, the perfect solution for those who find it difficult to use a hearing aid or who are confined to their home.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Our lab services<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

      Our Hearing Lab opened in 2012. We construct hearing aids in our own, on-site laboratory, provide headphones within a week (sometimes even within two days), provide services and repairs in the center\u2019s laboratory, unlike like other places where you need to send your hearing aid away to an external lab to be repaired.<\/p>\n
