Noise-cancelling headphones have come under scrutiny after concerns that overuse might impair people’s hearing skills.
Renee Almeida , an adult audiology clinical lead at Imperial College healthcare NHS trust , has seen an uptick in adults coming to her clinic with hearing issues only for tests to suggest their hearing is fine.
They might fail to locate where a sound is coming from, or struggle to follow a conversation on the train, in a bar or at a restaurant.
Prof Dani Tomlin says people who use noise-cancelling headphones for prolonged periods may find listening harder when they take them off.
But she says the benefits should not be overlooked’, for managing sensory inputs in neurodiverse people.
For now, Almeida recommends bone conduction headphones and hearing training.
