Economics, Structure, and Disruption in the U.S. Hearing Aid Market (2025)
The U.S. hearing aid market has been dominated by five global manufacturers, four of them foreign, who control most clinics, inflate prices from $150–$300 to over $4,000, and leave only 30 percent of people with hearing loss able to access care. Now, disruption from Apple, LXE Hearing, Meta, Nuance Audio, Luxottica, and digital-first benefits like Tuned is proving that affordable, full-spectrum hearing health is not only possible but already happening.
