Humans have been dealing with hearing loss for a long time, likewise, hearing aids have been around for quite a while. Here’s an illustrated timeline of the history of hearing aids to show you how hearing aids progressed from ear trumpets to the sleek, sophisticated digital hearing aids readily available today. 
Necessity is the mother of invention, hence why hearing devices have quite the history dating all the way back to the 17th century. As the years progressed and the need for better hearing aids arose, hearing aids became as advanced as the technology of the times allowed. Thankfully we don’t need to carry around primitive ear trumpets anymore, today we have access to modern digital hearing aids with discreet designs and Bluetooth capability.
