At Wigan Hearing, we pride ourselves on offering the latest and most advanced audiology equipment—technology that many other audiologists simply don’t have. Our commitment to innovation ensures that our patients receive the highest standard of hearing assessments and solutions.
State-of-the-Art Audiology Equipment at Wigan Hearing
Unlike many other audiologists, Wigan Hearing is equipped with industry-leading technology to provide in-depth and precise hearing evaluations. Our range of advanced diagnostic tools includes:
Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) Testing
OAE testing is a powerful tool that helps us assess the function of the inner ear (cochlea). This test measures sound waves produced by the inner ear in response to auditory stimuli, making it an essential method for identifying hearing loss, especially in newborns and young children.
Tympanometry and Acoustic Reflex Testing
These tests evaluate the function of the middle ear, eardrum, and the reflex pathways of the auditory system. Tympanometry detects fluid buildup, perforations, or issues with the eardrum, while acoustic reflex testing assesses the ear’s ability to respond to loud sounds, helping diagnose nerve-related hearing issues.
Pure Tone and Speech Audiometry
We use advanced pure tone and speech audiometry to measure hearing sensitivity across different frequencies. This test not only determines the degree of hearing loss but also evaluates speech recognition, ensuring accurate and tailored hearing aid fittings.
Soundproof Booth for Accurate Testing
Unlike many clinics that rely on makeshift testing environments, Wigan Hearing boasts a professionally designed, fully soundproof booth. This controlled setting eliminates background noise, ensuring the most precise hearing assessments possible.
3D Ear Scanning for Custom Hearing Aids
Gone are the days of uncomfortable and messy ear impressions. At Wigan Hearing, we use cutting-edge 3D ear scanning technology to create ultra-precise digital impressions for custom hearing aids and earplugs. This ensures a perfect fit, maximum comfort, and optimal performance.
