If your audiogram shows a notch — particularly in the high frequencies, where most tinnitus lives — there is a strong case for hearing aids, even if you do not feel you have a hearing problem.
Here is why. Tinnitus is, in large part, your auditory cortex turning up its own internal gain to compensate for missing input. Restore that input with amplification, and in roughly two thirds of people with hearing loss the ringing softens. Modern hearing aids are also tiny, almost invisible, and many models include a built-in tinnitus masker.
Wearing them is not surrender. It is the most direct mechanical intervention we have for tinnitus driven by hearing loss. Skipping them out of vanity costs years of unnecessary suffering. If you have not had a full audiogram, that is the next thing to book.
