Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use hearing protection?
You should always use hearing protection when engaging in high-noise recreational activities or work. These activities may include hunting, music concerts, motor sports, and/or construction. Noise-induced hearing loss can result from prolonged exposure to noise or a single, extremely loud event. The louder the sound, the quicker it can cause damage. If you notice ringing in your ears or temporary hearing loss after a loud noise exposure, the environment was too noisy and could be harmful. If that ringing or temporary hearing loss is persistent, it would be a good idea to contact us for a hearing evaluation.
Should I get my hearing tested?
If you suspect that you or a loved one may be experiencing hearing loss, it’s recommended that you seek help sooner rather than later. Hearing loss tends to develop gradually and is often noticeable to close friends and family well before the affected individual realizes it. Identifying and treating hearing loss promptly is crucial. Ignoring it could lead to significant long-term effects, such as increased risk of depression and dementia.
How much does a hearing test cost?
At Empire Hearing by AudioNova, hearing tests are offered FREE of charge.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Toni Tiberi at the Central Avenue location since my hearing began to fail 17 years ago. As a health care professional I give her the highest rating. This is my third set of hearing aides. Each time from the audio test through fitting, adjustment and follow up she has offered CONSISTENT quality service. She is simply the best at her job and I will continue to recommend her to all my acquaintances.

I am very happy with the way my representative works with me to get the best quality from my hearing aids.During my last visit she cleaned my ear pieces and added two programs based on my inability to hear my priest at Sunday mass. It made a big difference and I am pleased that my aids are periodically improved in a way that affects my hearing, not just loading on the newest thing. I would highly recommend Empire Hearing to my friends. Sharon Gormley

Acknowledging a hearing loss for me was and is a traumatic experience. I never imagined that I would have issues with my ability to hear. Hearing loss is complex with many difficult problems over the years. Toni has always met my individual crisis with a caring and responsive evaluation of my needs. Toni is easy to speak with, friendly, caring, knowledgeable and professional. She provides excellent service when cleaning and adjustments are needed. Her friendly staff, Karen, is capable and provides prompt service. I have always had great service and a caring ear to hear and resolve my problems.
