A method for operating a hearing system (10) is provided. The hearing system (10) comprises a hearing device (12) configured to be worn at an ear of a user, a user device (14) communicatively coupled to the hearing device (12) and comprising a camera (36) and a display (30). The hearing device (12) comprises at least one sound input module (20) for generating an audio signal indicative of a sound detected in an environment of the hearing device (12), a first processing unit (40) for modifying the audio signal, and at least one sound output module (22) for outputting the modified audio signal. The method comprises: receiving image data from the camera (36), the image data being representative for a scene (80) in front of the camera (36); receiving an audio signal from the at least one sound input module (20), the audio signal being representative for the acoustic environment of the hearing device (12) substantially at a time the image data have been captured, wherein the acoustic environment comprises at least one audio source and wherein the audio signal is at least in part representative for a sound from the audio source; determining at least one visual object (88) as the audio source, within the scene (80) from the image data and the audio signal.
