Did you know that some breast-cancer treatments carry a risk of hearing damage? The term is “ototoxicity” — when medication affects your inner ear and hearing. If you or someone you love is undergoing treatment, it’s worth asking your care team about possible hearing impacts. 👂

Individuals with hearing loss can safely hit the road... with the right precautions. Here are some tips for driving with hearing aids:
1️⃣ Double-Check Your Hearing Aids: Before starting your engine, make sure your hearing aids are clean, functional, and properly inserted.
2️⃣ Eliminate Distractions: Minimize in-car distractions like loud music or unnecessary conversations that can make it harder to hear essential sounds on the road.
3️⃣ Use Your Side Mirrors: Keep a keen eye on your surroundings through your side mirrors. Visual cues are vital when you can't hear everything.
4️⃣ Keep Windows Closed: Roll up your windows to reduce wind noise and make it easier to hear important sounds inside your car.
5️⃣ Check for Emergency Vehicles: Regularly scan for flashing lights and sirens, especially at intersections. Pull over and let them pass.
6️⃣ Use Hearing Aid Accessories: Some hearing aids come with accessories like remote microphones, which can improve your ability to hear conversations within the car.
Remember, safe driving is all about being attentive and aware of your surroundings. Hearing aids can greatly enhance your driving experience, but they should complement your safe driving practices.

Living with single-sided hearing loss (SSHL), also known as unilateral hearing loss, can be a challenge. It can affect your ability to locate sounds and understand conversations, especially in noisy places.
Thankfully, there are many treatment options, from traditional hearing aids to more advanced devices like CROS hearing aids and cochlear implants.
If you or a loved one is experiencing SSHL, it's a good idea to consult an audiologist. They can help find the right solution to improve your hearing and quality of life.
