Where things stand
Treating hearing loss improves access to sound and communication. In the ACHIEVE study, hearing intervention slowed cognitive decline in participants at higher risk, while the overall trial did not show the same clear cognitive benefit. This is promising evidence for a particular group, rather than proof that hearing aids prevent dementia in everyone.
