Our sense of hearing is a vital, yet often undervalued. Hearing issues can be easy to ignore or downplay. Sharing the experiences of other people who have overcome hearing loss can help us understand how important hearing is to our quality of life.
A spirited aviator, John takes to the clouds to get a feel of just how flat the Dutch landscape is. But it's not all play - weather, altitude and surrounding traffic need constant monitoring. And to make for a smooth flight, effective communication with the co-pilot and the control tower is important from take-off to touchdown. With technology that performs in most challenging listening environments, his Bernafon hearing aids give him improved speech understanding and attenuation of unpleasant noise, even 5,000 feet above the ground.
Bernafon's latest-generation hearing aids give priority to conversations. Packed with smart signal processing technologies, they amplify speech and reduce noise with remarkable accuracy. This helps speech understanding - even in situations involving multiple speakers.
When communicating with clients and architects it is very important for me to understand what is being said. (…) thanks to Bernafon hearing aids, I can perceive what is being spoken again - normally.

Compared to other products that I've worn before, my Bernafon hearing aids have given me a better perception of sound diversity.

Lawyer, coach, and motivational speaker, France
Without Bernafon hearing aids I wouldn’t be able to fly, because I wouldn’t be able to communicate with my co-pilot or the tower, and this hobby wouldn’t be possible for me.

Wearing the Bernafon hearing aids I can hear the birds, the planes going over head - everything sounds so clear.
