Your hearing health is important
Hearing is an important part of your overall health and well-being. Not only does it help keep you connected to the people and activities you love, it also helps preserve important connections in your brain that can help keep you sharp as you age. If you feel like your hearing could use a boost, a hearing aid could help. Learn more about new over-the-counter hearing aid options below.
What is it like to use OTC hearing aids?
You'll set up and control your OTC hearing aids through a companion app. You'll be able to pair them to your phone or other devices for clearer phone calls and seamless streaming. You'll use pre-set listening modes or create and save your own based on what you need.
Where can I get OTC hearing aids?
OTC hearing aids can be purchased directly from many retailers without an appointment with a hearing care professional or prescription.

“Outstanding hearing aids, the absolute best I’ve tried! These Sony hearing aids are slim, comfortable & provide excellent sound. They are easy to set up & the app makes it simple to adjust the volume or the treble/bass balance.”
Verified Jabra Enhance Select 200 customer
I wasn’t sure what to expect, only what my friend told me about Jabra [Enhance], and it’s turned out to be so much more! Besides being very affordable, when I received my hearing aids in the mail, I got everything I needed plus comprehensive, easy to understand instructions. My audiologist is very professional, but also supportive and knowledgeable making my first appointment with her a pleasant experience. When I need support or a question answered, the response is timely. I would gladly recommend Jabra to anyone, no matter what their budget is, but looking for high quality hearing aids.

Verified Sony CRE-E10 customer
“Fantastic OTC hearing aids. Have moderate hearing loss and was finding it difficult to understand voices during business meetings. These did the trick - have not asked anyone to repeat themselves since getting these.”
Verified Jabra Enhance Select 200 customer
“As a 53 year old I was starting to have regular issues in groups or in settings with a lot of background noise (cars, restaurants etc). I delayed getting hearing aids because I didn't want to have to wear them everyday because I didn't want to feel old. They have made such a big difference in my daily life and make me feel younger because I'm right on top of everything being said. They are very empowering & the best thing I have done lately!”
