OTC hearing aids are a safe, effective option for mild to moderate hearing loss - that’s what they’re designed for, and that’s where they shine. But if your hearing dips into the severe range, or your audiogram shows complex patterns, a prescription fit with a professional is usually the better route.
That’s why taking a hearing test first is essential, whether that’s in a clinic or through our online hearing test at Soundly.com. Your audiogram will help you understand if OTC hearing aids may be a good option.
If you need assistance with the test or your results, reach out to directly to Soundly here on the site! AARP members who purchase OTC hearing aids here benefit from a complimentary setup call with one of Soundly’s on-staff audiologists. This personalized support ensures each device is optimized for your unique needs, providing peace of mind and a seamless start.
