What Happens During a Hearing Evaluation?

Not all hearing tests are created equal. If you're visiting a high-quality hearing care practice, here's what you can expect during your hearing evaluation.

07/28/2025

Your ear is uniquely shaped, impacting the way that sound travels to your eardrum.

For this reason, when we fit you with hearing aids, we need to measure the sound that's reaching your eardrum and verify that you're hearing at your prescribed volume based on your hearing loss.

We do this using a test called "real ear measurement", where we put a small probe tube that's attached to a microphone deep into your ear while you're wearing your hearing aids, and play calibrated sounds to measure the levels at your eardrum.

Then we fine-tune the hearing aid output until the sound you're actually hearing matches your prescription.

Unfortunately, nearly 70% of hearing professionals DON'T routinely do this test, leading to people purchasing expensive hearing aids without receiving their full benefit.

Should you buy premium hearing aids?

ONLY if your hearing provider follows comprehensive best practices when fitting them (fewer than 30% do!).

Dr. Cliff recently heard about a patient with sudden sensorineural hearing loss, who was told by an ENT to wait a full year before getting hearing aids—hoping the brain might "adjust" or that hearing could return.
