Ambidextrous Hearing Aids

Ambidextrous hearing aids are hearing aids that work in either ear. There isn't a designated right or left ear for these to work. They are designed to be used by both people with unilateral hearing loss or people looking to order just one device.

Benefits of ambidextrous hearing aids

1. Minimizes unilateral hearing loss

While some people feel they detect better with one ear and therefore are uncomfortable wearing a device on both ears, it's important to remember that hearing in both ears offers a greater detection range. A hearing aid that fits either ear can use reduces the risk of unilateral hearing loss.

2. Ease of use

Because it doesn't matter which device you use in which ear, ambidextrous hearing aids are easier to use and replace.

3. Affordable

Although most ambidextrous hearing aids are in the lower tier of available hearing aids and hearing amplifiers, that does mean these devices are generally more afforable.

Examples of ambidextrous hearing aids

iBstone K19

The iBstone K19 is a hearing aid that always comes in a pair. Each device is specifically made for both ears, so that each ear can be independently adjusted to fit the wearer's needs.

2. LAIWEN LP-01

The LAIWEN LP-01 is a hearing aid that only comes in a single, so order two if you want a pair. When you have two, don't worry about which ear to fit them in.

3. Banglijian Ziv-201

The Banglijian Ziv-201 is still a classic, and also an example of an ambidextrous hearing amplifier.

It's important to wear your hearing aids regularly if you have hearing loss. With ambidextrous hearing aids, you can purchase one pair and wear them in either
ear. Where most hearing aids are like shoes and have a designated left and right ear, ambidextrous ones are better compared to socks.
