“Are Eargo hearing aids real hearing aids or basic amplifiers?”
Answer This Question
1-1 of 1 Answer
Eargo devices are hearing aids - Exempt medical devices registered with the FDA and subject to FDA regulations on standards for performance, manufacturing, labeling, and safety. Most other options sold online are amplifiers – “Personal Sound Amplifiers” or PSAPs. They are general amplifiers that make everything louder and do not have to meet the same standards as hearing aids. By their definition, PSAPs are meant to amplify environmental sounds for “non-hearing-impaired” consumers.
