The FDA changed the rules in 2022: hearing aids can now be sold over the counter without a prescription. That means no audiologist appointment required, and no $3,000–$7,000 price tag. OTC hearing aids are appropriate for mild-to-moderate hearing loss, which covers most people who notice a problem.
