Nuance Audio Glasses are not a mere "sound amplifier", but a proper medical device. They are spectacle frames embedded with groundbreaking technology which seamlessly integrate an air conduction hearing aid (Medical Device Class IIa, sold as over-the-counter "OTC" Hearing Aid, in the United Kingdom) intended to amplify sound for adult users (18yrs and older) with a perceived mild to moderate hearing impairment. Nuance Audio Glasses, if necessary, are to be used in association with prescription lenses for those adults who also require correction of visual defects.
Nuance Audio Glasses can be worn all day and must be easily configured via the App to adapt to any situation, from business meetings to family time.

Nuance Audio Glasses addresses mild to moderate hearing loss guaranteeing invisibility, simplicity, and comfort with best value for money.

Wearing Nuance Audio Glasses addresses the audibility challenge by providing amplification and enhancing the clarity of the speaker you are facing. These glasses feature an innovative microphone array and groundbreaking directional amplification technology, creating a focused beam in the direction you are looking. The sound in this targeted area is amplified, while the surrounding areas remain unaffected. This results in maximum amplification for the person directly in front of you, effectively addressing the challenge of understanding speech in noisy environments for those with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss. Our advanced directional amplification technology, coupled with open ears and natural sound, allows you to effortlessly catch up on sounds that may be missed, especially in noisy surroundings. Nuance Audio Glasses not only offers comfort and convenience but also ensures high-performance sound quality.

There are several differences between Nuance Audio Glasses and traditional hearing aids:
• Style: Nuance Audio Glasses relies on EssilorLuxottica R&D skills, craftmanship capabilities and design expertise. As a result, Nuance Audio Glasses seamlessly integrates its technology within a stylish frame.
• Comfort: People who use other OTC or traditional hearing aids tend to complain about discomfort in the ear canal. Nuance Audio Glasses offers vision and hearing benefits in one seamless product. The open-ear solution eliminates the discomfort commonly associated with inside-the-ear traditional aids.
• Directionality: This allows the listener to focus on the speaker they are facing, when used in "Frontal" audio mode. For those times when you prefer to experience your surroundings without emphasizing the front, Nuance Audio Glasses offers also the “All-around” audio mode, which amplifies without utilizing the directional algorithm.
• Simplicity: As no fitting/configuration are required, you can adjust your Nuance Audio Glasses settings from your Nuance Audio App very easily. Nuance Audio Glasses has been designed to be very simple to use and does not require customers to be tech-savvy. You can easily configure Nuance Audio Glasses via the companion Nuance Audio App choosing the (i) preset program (four options available) that best suits your profile, as well as further personalizing the hearing support by playing with (ii) "volume", (iii) "background noise" and (iv) "audio mode" settings. All these 4 settings are available in the Nuance Audio App home page.
• Accessibility : Unlike traditional hearing aids, Nuance Audio Glasses is an Over-the-Counter product that can be bought directly in store (ADD LINK TO STORE LOCATOR). Hearing tests and hearing status certification are not required.

No, the glasses do not use bone conduction, but air conduction. They use speakers embedded in the frame, near your ears.

The people around you (at a casual distance) should not hear or be distrubed by the amplified sounds.
