More than thirty five million Americans suffer from different forms of hearing loss. And the strange thing about it is that only two out of ten people who have the potential to benefit from wearing ear aids actually put them on. Different organizations continuously try to promote public awareness on ear disorders and the vital role of the professionals who provide treatment.

People who are close to a potential ears disorder patient are the first ones who recognize the symptoms of hearing loss. They should be made aware of the challenges of convincing their loved one to undergo hearing tests. Some people who experience hearing issues show anger, denial, and unwillingness to undergo ear examinations. ReSound hearing aids can bring some dramatic results to people experiencing hearing problems. Here are signs that may indicate the onset of ear loss:

> Absent-mindedness
>Inability to quickly respond
>Buzzing sensation in the ears
>Turning the volume to high when listening using earphones
>Stifled listening
>Easily frustrated
>Depression
>Evading conversation
>Isolating themselves

A new breakthrough in listening aid technology may help in encouraging more people in wearing the dreaded listening and we are referring to the made for iPhone ReSound listening. This amazing gadget was first introduced in the last Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
ReSound LiNX hearing is a high end ear device that incorporates state-of-the-art Surround Sound provided by ReSound technologies and wireless connectivity using ReSound's two point four GHz digital wireless system. This astounding listening gadget is designed to allow direct connection to Apple devices. Aside from phone usage, ReSound has other exciting data exchange-and audio streaming features.

iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 are both compatible with the ReSound device as long as you have activated the listening treatment Mode on the phone. This can be done by going to the Hearing section on the iPhone Accessibility menu and choosing Hearing Aid. The Hearing Aid Mode can minimize the transmission energy of the cellular phone and will lead to better sound quality. With the iPhone 5, you can adjust the acoustic settings of the phone and enhance sound quality. The entire process performed on Hearing Aid Mode does not involve any type of streaming or data exchange.

Aside from the convenience of operating hands-free, another great feature of the ReSound hearing aid is that the signal is received in both hearing aids if the user is jointly fit.
Until now, there are still no other mobile phone maker aside from Apple which offers this type of functionality for hearing instrument manufacturers.
