oseka101:Thanks for this! One of my sons has quint eyes and someone has been pushing my husband to correct them through surgery. He is just six years old. As for me, I have no qualms with his eyes like that so far its not stopping him from seeing clearly, besides he's a smart and cute boy. Would really show him your post. I'm sorry about your hearing loss, may the Mighty hand of Jesus restore your hearing, amen! 2 Likes |

Chiebunigom:quint Eyes is not owk I will advise you for his sake not yours to go for the surgery early I did mine when I was 15 years old the doctors said I should have done it ealier ..the problem with quint eyes is that one of the eyes muscles will be pulling the other one and it will weaken his eye sight very soon he might not be seeing clearly and also it was kinda traumatic for me back den kids used to make fun of me which affected my self esteem ...i did my surgery @kano eye hospital they have brilliant surgeons there its more like plastic surgery roughly 4hrs and cost abt 60- 80k then 10years back sha don't please just try and do it my elder sister also had hers there too ... 1 Like |

Codyt:to be honest I don't like wearing those hearing aids.. it look kinda embarrassing wearing it all the time.. I requested for the invisible hearing aid that you can hardly see.. but doctor said it not all that can wear it depending on the situation and level of your hearing.. The doctor took my test result to puretone and got the hearing aid after one month for 120k 1 Like

remainhidden:Bro see ehn I can relate very well. When you are seen wearing things like this, when people want to talk to you they'll over do it so annoyingly Its true not everyone can wear the invisible aid. I've used this particular type. But it's not strong enough. How do we get our convo from here? 1 Like |

I would suggest you start learning sign language as a substitute, hearing aids only amplifies sound and doesn't necessarily give a reasonable sound.. besides the itching that comes with it..... I'm a sign language interpreter and I have friends who lost their hearing at their 20's and more, but today they have accepted their condition and took up sign language as alternative language though they converse very well like everyone just that they can't hear.. cochlear implants is also a no no... because you are neither deaf nor hearing..... 1 Like |

kateskitty:My dear sorry for the late response...I just login. Now back to the issue at hand,don't take any issue concerning your ear for grant. See an audiologist immediately and you will be shown the way forward. Don't wait before it is too late... I waited 27years before I took a step to get this hearing aid. I trust you will do the honourable thing Best wishes!!!! 1 Like |

It is a premium swiss quality product A digital that makes use of battery as small as that of a wrist watch. where are you based? is ur kid the one in need of the hearing aid? I will send you his number when we talk better. May God makes everything right in HIS time 1 Like |

oseka101:OK dear, his dad has kept telling me about the self esteem ish.... But then we would train him in such a way that matters like that shouldn't affect his self worth. My main concern has always been, the aftermath of the surgery (just like you're experiencing the hearing loss). Though my husband and I would revisit that decision again. Thank you 1 Like |

sonya4all:Why is cochlear a no no. Are u saying it can't work for everyone or maybe because its too expensive. I lost my hearing in my 20s as well and I used hearing aids for like 2 to 3 years then I dropped it when it was becoming too annoying. Since then I have been managing myself just like that. My problem is that I'm not rich for those sophisticated hearing aids. My only hope is to travel out of this country, work and do the surgery if possible there. I don't know if I sound right bro. 1 Like |
