Online hearing test: early detection for increased quality of life
In a daily life that is often full of activities and must-do's, it is easy to forget about your hearing. But hearing is one of our most important senses and hearing loss can affect both quality of life, health and social relationships. An easy way to start taking care of your hearing is to take an online hearing test.
What is an online hearing test?
An online hearing test is a digital test that you can do at home, directly via computer or mobile. You listen to different sounds with varying frequency and volume and respond to what you hear. The test does not replace a full examination by an audiologist, but it gives a good first picture of your hearing and can show if you need to take the next step.
Therefore, early detection is important
Hearing loss often creeps up on you and isn't always immediately noticeable. That's why it's important to be alert in time. The earlier hearing loss is detected, the greater the chance of maintaining an active everyday life and a good quality of life.
- Reduce social isolation
- Reduce communication difficulties
