I have hearing aids, generally no, they don’t cause any more damage and my hearing is at the “severe” level (before profound/deafness.) hearing aids work by picking up sound in the microphones usually located on the rear and top they send the sound through the tube and into the ear. They also use batteries and I think some are actually rechargeable but mine are not. But I will say that they do blast anything they hear into the ear unless you alter them at a doctors not to, but the result of filtering out sounds to get voices better will lead to a shitton of jumpscares. As a result, hearing aids mostly blast everything they pick up into the ear without discrimination.
