This OTC hearing aid is for users who are 18 and older. People who are
younger than 18 with hearing loss should see a doctor, preferably an ENT,
because they may need medical testing and management. Hearing loss can
affect speech and learning, so professional fitting and continuing care are
also important.

an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor (an ENT).
