How online hearing test works and what to expect

Updated: Oct 6, 2021


Most of the time, we do not notice hearing loss until it starts to impact our lifestyle. You may miss out on the whole story if you cannot hear clearly when talking with your colleagues, friends, or family. Understanding your personal hearing profile is the 1st step towards a more complete hearing. Our hearing test is free and only requires a few minutes of your time and can be done at home before visiting our clinic.


How the online hearing test works

  • Make sure you are in a quiet area before you start the hearing test

  • Use headphones instead of built-in speakers and set your device volume to 50%

  • The first part of the test determines how well you can hear at different frequency levels. You will hear a number of tones at different pitches and are asked to adjust the volume until you can hear the sound

  • In the second part of the test, we will ask you a number of questions about your ability to hear in challenging listening situations

  • After that, you will be presented with your hearing test result and guidance on what to do next if we encounter signs of hearing loss

  • Try it for yourself and do the online hearing test now!


I have a hearing loss, what comes next?

After completing your online hearing test, you may find that you have hearing loss. This online hearing test is not definitive so we would need you to come down to our clinic for a consultation.


We care about your hearing and the issues your hearing loss may have presented in your lives. We are here to help. Hearing loss is natural and nothing to fear. With our latest technology from Vista B, we can help you hear better again.


What to expect during your first appointment in the clinic?

Your journey starts with a visit to a hearing care professional; they are there to guide you to the correct option for you. You speak about your hearing, how it has changed, what challenges you are facing and we listen.


After you’ve shared your experiences, we test to see what you are hearing. A hearing test is as easy as sitting down and listening. Once complete, we take those results, pair them with your challenges to ensure our data matches your experiences, and make recommendations about what is best for you. You can also browse our collections to take a look at what we can provide you.


We lay out our findings and give recommendations based on what you’ve told us. Ultimately, you get to make the decisions about what option fits best for your life. Things like your family, work, and social life are all things you should take into account before deciding to ensure the solution you select is right for all aspects of your life.
