Let's not overlook the smart glasses that also have bluetooth sound that
is not in your ear.

Eric, your hearing aids sound identical to the OpenFit 2 earbuds I am
using, so those would not be an option.
I do not know of an earbud that would fit below the speaker you describe.
Are your hearing agains bluetooth? Could the iPhone pair with them and
just use them for both? Probably not, or you would have mentioned that.
I also would guess you have ask your audiologist? I know Jonathan
Mosen wears hearing aids, perhaps tracking him down at NFB would be
useful?
I'd be interested if you find a solution. I may be there one day...

Sure,
Hearing aids usually sit on the upper back of the ear. Sort of like
the part of the arm of a pair of glasses where it might bend down a
bit behind the ear. So like the last part of an eye glasses arm.
There is a small wire that comes out of the front and connects to a
small tube shaped speaker that goes in the ear canal.
My current Shocks, the Open Run constantly fall down and sit on the
hearing aids making them uncomfortable and can effect the microphone.
My older version didn’t seem to do this as badly, but is now broken.
It sounds like some open Ear bud designs might clip lower on the ear
but I’ve never seen or heard about that before.

Could you describe the hearing aids in more detail?
I would have thought the bone conduction approach would not
interfere, since they sit in front of the ear.
Or do the hearing aids have hooks like eyeglasses that go over and
behind your ears?

I’m hoping someone will comment on best open ear buds for someone
that uses hearing aids. The aids sit on the top of the ears and
though I can use the traditional shocks head set or glasses like
the Bose frames, something that doesn’t have to share that space
would be great.

I happen to love my Bose Ultra earbuds. They don’t go in your ear
and they work so great and boy the sound can’t be beat.

As much as I try, I am just not fond of things going in my ears.
I have AirPod pros, but do not use them often. Has anyone used
any of the options on this list? Do you have alternative
suggestions? Thank you and enjoy!
