Frequently Asked Questions

What are Nuance Audio glasses?

Nuance Audio glasses are a type of smart eyewear that seamlessly blend everyday eyeglass frames with built-in open-ear hearing support. They're perfect for adults who want to hear conversations more clearly, especially in bustling environments like social gatherings, work meetings, or restaurants, all without the need for traditional hearing aids.

What’s great is that they look and feel just like regular glasses, which is a big part of their charm.

How do Nuance Audio glasses work?

Nuance Audio glasses are pretty cool! They come equipped with tiny directional microphones and discreet speakers that are cleverly integrated into the temples of the frame. These microphones pick up the sounds and voices around you, and then the glasses amplify that sound right near your ears using open-air speakers.

What’s great about this design is that it doesn’t block your ear canal, so you can still hear everything happening around you naturally. Many folks find this setup much more comfortable than traditional in-ear devices, especially if they already wear glasses on a daily basis.

Are Nuance Audio glasses hearing aids?

Yes, Nuance Audio glasses are designed as over-the-counter hearing assistance eyewear for adults experiencing mild to moderate hearing loss in the U.S. In the UK and Europe, they’re categorized as a medical hearing device.

These glasses aim to enhance everyday speech clarity, especially during one-on-one chats or group discussions where it can be challenging to keep up.

Who are Nuance Audio glasses best for?

These glasses are generally a great choice for adults who:

- have a hard time hearing speech clearly in noisy places
- frequently find themselves asking others to repeat what they said
- feel drained after lengthy conversations
- prefer a more subtle option compared to traditional hearing aids
- already wear glasses and appreciate the idea of merging two needs into one frame

Keep in mind, they’re not really designed for those with severe hearing loss or for individuals who require precise clinical hearing correction.

Can I use Nuance Audio glasses as sunglasses?

Nuance Audio is primarily crafted to function as hearing eyewear instead of just your typical dark sunglasses. However, you can find some lens customizations and light-adaptive options based on the frame you choose.

A lot of customers opt for Transitions® style lenses, allowing the glasses to seamlessly adjust between indoor and outdoor lighting.

How long does the battery last?

A full charge usually provides about 8 hours of listening time, but this can vary based on your sound settings and how frequently you use the audio assistance feature.

For many folks, that’s more than enough to get through a workday, attend lunch meetings, enjoy social dinners, or even during travel. If you don’t need the hearing support all the time, switching off the device when it’s not in use can really help to stretch that battery life even more.

How do I charge Nuance Audio glasses?

To charge your Nuance Audio glasses, first connect the charging pad using a standard USB‑C charger or USB‑C power source (minimum 5V). Once the pad is connected, fold your glasses and place them face‑down on the charging pad, the built‑in magnets will guide the glasses into the correct position for charging.

The charging status indicator will turn green once the glasses are fully charged.

Can people around me hear the sound coming from the glasses?

Nope, the sound is meant to be kept private.

The speakers are positioned really close to your ears, directing the amplified sound straight to you instead of blasting it out into the room. So, folks nearby usually won’t catch your audio while you’re using it normally.
