Reviews for Cincinnati Eye Institute

Hearing aids are an expensive investment, but necessary for those of us who have hearing loss. John and Linda provide great service and have always been able to resolve any issues I have had with my aids in the office and I have never had to have my aids shipped out for costly repairs. I am very glad that I chose The Hearing Services at CEI when purchasing new aids.

My wife said, ‘If you’re not going to wear your other hearing aids, why don’t you go to the Hearing Services at CEI?’ Well, I did, and not only was I pleased to hear my wife of over 50 years, but she was just as pleased that now I was hearing what she had to say!
