Hello,
At your age of 69 years, sensorineural hearing loss is very common. It is due to age-related nerve degeneration. So hearing aid is the only treatment.
Now a days, better hearing aids are available. So consult another ENT doctor and ask for newer improved hearing aids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
