I bought in India bro.. around 90k ayyundi.. only reason for buying there is getting help when they break… and avi frequency set cheyyadam and person ki set avvadaniki oka month time paduthundi.. and edanna problem vaste easy to get it fixed..

It's better to buy in India they do a test and determine how hearing is lost. 50% below unte ne  they recommend hearing aids..

Moreover India lo konte India warranty vastadi anything goes wrong he can go the shop and get fixed... 

Every 1-2 years lo check and re calibrate based on the hearing loss.

Moreover there only couple companies which make these hearing aids phonak and Siemens...

Make sure u get a water proof one. Bluetooth is not necessary

There are some over the counter hearing aids nowadays  but they seem to work only for mild hearing loss 

Even sony made one

one alternative is a bluetooth earphones and a smartphone.

both android and apple have the option to convert the phone as amplifier. so someone can enable that when hearing impared. ofcourse this is for ppl who have slight issues.

apple airpods with smart phone is a good choice.
