Home Hearing Tests in Lanarkshire
Professional Home Hearing Assessments
If you’ve noticed you’re turning the television up louder or asking people to repeat themselves more often, a home hearing test could be the first step towards better hearing.
The Optical Factory now offers home hearing tests throughout Lanarkshire, providing a convenient alternative to visiting a clinic. Our audiologist will visit you at home, carry out a full hearing assessment, discuss your results, and recommend the most suitable hearing solution for your needs.
Why Choose a Home Hearing Test?
A home hearing test allows you to receive the same professional care you’d expect in aclinic in the comfort of your own home. Benefits include:
Comprehensive hearing assessment
Relaxed, familiar environment
No need to travel
Personalised advice from an experienced audiologist
Opportunity to discuss and test hearing aid options if required
Many people feel more comfortable discussing their hearing concerns at home, making it easier to ask questions and understand their options.
What Happens During Your Home Appointment?
Your appointment has been designed to make the process as simple and straightforward as possible.
Step 1: Comprehensive Hearing Assessment
We'll carry out a full hearing assessment to understand your hearing levels and identify any hearing loss.
Step 2: Trial Hearing Aids
If hearing aids are recommended, you'll have the opportunity to trial hearing aids for a week before making any decisions. This allows you to experience the benefits in your everyday environment rather than making a decision in clinic.
Step 3: TV Connectivity
If appropriate, we'll also show you how your hearing aids can connect to your television, helping you enjoy clearer sound without increasing the volume for everyone else.
Step 4: One Week Trial
This gives you time to engage in conversations, watch television, and experience everyday life with improved hearing.
Step 5: Follow-Up Home Visit
We'll return for a follow-up appointment to discuss how you've been getting on, review your feedback, make any adjustments, and answer any questions before you make any decisions.

Ear Wax Removal
Blocked ears caused by excess ear wax can affect your hearing and sometimes mimic hearing loss.
We can also provide ear wax removal alongside your hearing assessment where appropriate, helping ensure your hearing is assessed as accurately as possible.
We Recommend Having a Family Member Present
Often, the first person to notice changes in your hearing is someone close to you.
We recommend having the family member or friend who comments on your hearing the most present during your appointment if possible.
Their observations can provide insight into the situations where you’re struggling to hear, and can offer helpful feedback after you’ve trialled your hearing aids for a week.
