New over-the-counter hearing aids and smart glasses with advanced audio features were showcased by multiple companies at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. The 2026 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas featured a significant presence from the hearing health sector, with companies unveiling a new generation of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, smart glasses with integrated hearing assistance, and other AI-powered audio technologies. Smart Glasses Focus on Hearing Enhancement A growing trend at the show was the integration of hearing technology into eyewear. EssilorLuxottica again showcased its Nuance Audio glasses, which function as an OTC hearing aid for consumers with mild-to-moderate hearing loss. The device, a CES 2025 Innovation Awards honoree, uses beamforming technology to enhance conversation clarity in noisy environments.

The feature uses beamforming technology and real-time spatial processing to amplify the voice of a person the user is facing. Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses also feature live-captioning. Other smart glasses on display included Captify Pro, which transcribes spoken words in real-time onto the lenses, and early-stage concepts from Shokz, which is exploring future wearable audio experiences.
