A new research article published in Neurology® on January 14, 2026, suggests that hearing aid use in older adults may be associated with a lower long-term risk of dementia. Read about some of the key findings in this recent Medscape Medical News post. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/striking-impact-hearing-aids-dementia-risk-2026a100022q

Hearing aid prescriptions were not linked to meaningful improvements in memory or executive function, but were associated with a lower long-term dementia risk. In a large observational study, older adults with hearing aids had a 33% lower risk of dementia and a 15% lower risk of cognitive impairment over 7 years, despite similar overall cognition scores. https://bit.ly/4r5c9DN
