Fri, 21 Sep 2018

A life-changing piece of technology for those with hearing loss has been launched on the Isle of Man.

Manx Telecom have released a new product called MT clearSound which uses innovative mobile technology specially designed software to create a personal profile tailored to an individual’s hearing ability, whether or not they have medically diagnosed hearing loss.

The profile fine tunes speech in all incoming and outgoing calls on the Manx Telecom mobile network.

In a clinical trial carried out in 2018, 90% of the volunteers taking part agreed that speech was clearer and easier to hear when using the product.

One of those who took part in the trial is Viv Ward - speaking to MTTV - shes says its made all the difference.
