Anyone tried these glasses with in built hearing?

You mean “Glasses with built in hearing aids”

Never knew they were a thing, but seems they are at vision express etc

Makes sense as we age eyes, ears, and many other bits deteriorate. Add an AI chip itll help with being forgetful

Eric Sykes wore glasses with no lenses which had built in bone conducting hearing aids.
A bit too late to ask him though.

They are a good idea, I have to slot the arms of my glasses down the side of my hearing aids which can be uncomfortable, luckily I have monovision so can get away without wearing glasses unless I'm driving.

I can't hear you, let me put my glasses on...knew my grandfather was on to something

Reminds me of the old joke, couple with 10 kids, when asked about it, the man said, well… “the wife is deaf, when we turn in I say are we going to sleep or what? & she always says WHAT”

Yes, I saw an advert on Channel 4 and it all looked pretty discreet without the fuss of in ear aids and I'm struggling a bit in busy meetings with lots of people talking at the same time.
Just wondered if anyone had experience or if it's still a bit of a gimmick

Yes Nuance was the add - not cheap mind

I wear hearing aids, wouldn’t want them as part of the glasses as I don’t wear them all the time, but if I did, you need a glasses change, I wouldn’t mind betting that the frames are longer available, conversely, if you change the hearing aids presumably you need new frames.

I've been looking at these too...struggling to hear in "busy" environments.

I also came across a company in the USA who supply glasses that convert sound into subtitles that are then projected on the lenses of glasses!
