Hearing

Just like your sight, hearing is a vital sense and it’s important that you monitor its health – as you would your eyes. This is why M&S Opticians offer free hearing health checks as part of our services. We understand that with better hearing you can make the most of the world around you. Our highly trained Hearing Aid Audiologists are available to provide a comprehensive hearing assessment; where they’ll check the health of your ears and your level of hearing.

Get help with your hearing

Free Hearing Screening

This is a simple check that takes just 5-10 minutes to complete. Using a simple testing device, it shows how you hear across four sound frequencies (low to high pitched). If the results show you need further investigation, a hearing assessment can be carried out by one of our qualified Hearing Aid Audiologists.

Free Hearing Assessment

The hearing assessment is more comprehensive, and will identify what changes in your hearing have occurred and the steps needed to address these changes. During the assessment you’ll have an initial discussion with the Hearing Aid Audiologist to understand your medical history and general health, followed by an ear health check where the Audiologist will examine the outer ear, checking for any blockages or abnormalities of the eardrum and ear canal. Following this, a more thorough check of your hearing will be carried out followed by a in depth explanation of your results, whereby you will be able to ask any questions you may have.
