Traditionally, people that used hearing aids had to make several trips to a professional’s office to obtain satisfaction with their adjustments. With openfit.com's hearing aids, customers can purchase the best hearing aids, receive and program the instruments right from their home or office with exceptional accuracy and reasonable cost.
Openfit.com is among the very first to offer a truly remote audiological solution to those who prefer to simply stay at home to handle their hearing aid adjustments. The developers of the new technology firmly admit that the product is NOT your father’s hearing aid solution, but rather a new high tech leap into the future for those who are computer and internet savvy. Openfit.com offers all styles of hearing aids: receiver-in-canal, open ear hearing aids, behind the ear and in the ear.
The openfit.com technology is called the Virtual Technology and is a tool that places the ability to make programming adjustments to hearing aids in the hands of the consumer. Until now this was done at the office of a hearing aid dealer or audiologist. Virtual Technician sets a new standard for convenience in the ownership and use of hearing instruments by allowing a digital hearing aid purchase to be made directly from the manufacturer and programmed either by the wearer or with remote assistance directly over the web.
All hearing instrument manufacturers have unique programming software and hardware that is provided only to the professionals who sell their products. Without sacrificing accuracy or flexibility, the new software and hardware is operated easily by the wearer of Virtual Technician compatible instruments. The programmer can be used by anyone with a personal computer where program adjustments can be performed by the listener on their own instruments. If they wish they can request assistance with their adjustments by contacting the audiology department and their hearing aids can be adjusted by a staff Audiologists directly over the web.
