A thin probe tube is gently placed in your ear canal alongside your hearing aid. Sounds are played through a speaker, and the equipment measures the amplification delivered in your ear.
These measurements are compared with prescribed targets based on your hearing test.
Real ear measurements help us check whether soft, conversational, and louder sounds receive appropriate amplification. They provide useful information beyond the hearing aid software’s initial settings.
Your feedback remains important. We consider the measurements together with comfort, sound quality, and your everyday listening experience.
Real ear verification may form part of a new hearing aid fitting or reassessment of existing devices. Contact us to discuss compatibility and applicable fees.
Your ear shape affects how amplified sound reaches your eardrum. Real ear verification allows Dr. McKinney to measure that sound directly and use the results to refine your hearing aid settings.
