Description

Is someone who has hearing loss considered a choleh? Is closing the battery door on a hearing aid, which will cause feedback, a problem on shabbos? Is placing a cochlear implant on shabbos a violation of a melacha? Is changing the volume with modern hearing aids different than the way it used to be?
