I am in my eighties, and have pretty severe industrial deafness. I was
issued hearing aids, but they only served to introduce me to all manner
of extraneous noises that drowned out the things that I actually needed to hear. I trialled a more expensive pair that were tuned to my needs, but found them little better, so my life is now a trial, as I have to ask for almost everything to be repeated, often more than once, which often irritates the speaker. Are you sure your father hasn't tried them somewhere private
[because of embarrassment maybe], and decided that he didn't like them for whatever reason?
