I can't believe that(but I will read any credible links if you have ), in the hearing case the people would turn off the device in the beginning when they feel overwhelmed, I assume that for the eyes you can cover them when you also get tired or if you are in a place with lot of visual information.

I worked in Audiology for 15 years and saw many elderly people unable to adapt to the changes and device acceptance was inversely related to age.

The world is a noisy place, and the less you exercises your noise reduction skills the harder it is to cope.

the #1 complaint I received from new users: "I hear too much noise"

the #1 request from all hearing aid users: "I only want to hear what I want to hear and nothing else"

Imagine telling your optometrist you only want to see the nice things in life.

In the Deaf community many people are shunned if they use hearing devices.
