How does the Hearing Aids help the deaf people?

The hearing aids are small amplifying devices used by the partially deaf individuals. The hearing aids work by receiving the sound signals through a tiny microphone, which converts the sound signal to an electrical signal. This signal is sent into an amplifier, which filters the noise and makes the sound louder and thus helping you to hear.
