The EasyRetainer was invented by a hearing aid and eyeglass user after he lost his $3500 hearing aid one morning. He was tired of the irritation of having both the eyeglass and hearing aid rub against his ear, the chunkiness of having both sitting loose and moving around, and trying to find his hearing aid every morning when he woke up. The EasyRetainer was first created for personal use – but after friends started commenting and requesting some for themselves, he realized it might be something others could benefit from! This EasyRetainer is handmade at the inventor’s home.
