Protect Your Ears: Know about the Dangers of Overusing Earphones and How to Avoid Them,” the risks of overusing earphones and practical tips to protect hearing while still enjoying audio experiences are discussed. Overusing earphones at high volumes can contribute to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), tinnitus, hyperacusis, and ear infections and wax buildup. To avoid these conditions, one should follow the 60/60 rule, use volume-limiting earphones/headphones, and maintain proper ear hygiene. The 60/60 rule recommends that one should listen to audio at no more than 60% of the maximum volume for no longer than 60 minutes at a time, followed by taking a break. Volume-limiting earphones restrict the maximum volume output, and good ear hygiene prevents infections and wax buildup caused by frequent earphone use. The blog post emphasizes the importance of being aware of the potential risks associated with overusing earphones and following safe listening and ear-care practices to continue enjoying favorite audio experiences without jeopardizing hearing health.

The revolutionary ‘BrainHearing’ approach on which Oticon’s hearing aids are modelled prioritizes a brain-centric audiology approach over solely concentrating on the ears. Recent scientific breakthroughs have shown that the brain performs optimally when it has access to more information from the entire sound landscape. This has led to the development of the Inium Sense sound processing platform, which provides real-time processing for a signal that closely resembles what a healthy ear would deliver, improved soft speech understanding through Soft Speech Booster, and faster feedback detection and removal with the Inium Sense feedback shield. Oticon’s BrainHearing Technology aims to support the natural hearing system by offering people with hearing loss access to the complete sound environment. Improper treatment of hearing loss can have far-reaching consequences, transforming a hearing problem into a brain problem, leading to increased listening effort, heightened mental load, reorganized brain functionality, accelerated cognitive decline, and expedited brain volume shrinkage.

Hearing loss is a common problem that affects millions of people worldwide. Fortunately, advances in hearing aid technology have made it easier than ever to enhance your hearing and improve your quality of life.
