When a
crucial part of your inner ear isn’t working properly, you may need more than a
hearing aid, especially if you have a severe to profound sensorineural hearing
loss in both ears. Many people suffer with hearing loss because their hair
cells in the inner ear (or cochlea) are damaged. This type of hearing loss can
make speech much more difficult to understand, especially in noisy situations.
In many cases, you may have trouble hearing sounds, such as children’s voices,
your spouse and sounds of nature.
Hearing
aids are wonderful devices that bring clarity and understanding to those with
hearing loss, but they have their limitations with some types of
severe-to-profound hearing loss. A cochlear implant becomes a solution when
hearing aids are no longer an appropriate option. A cochlear implant is
designed to not only make sounds louder, but also clearer. The cochlear implant
enables the sound to be transferred to your hearing nerves and enables you to
hear. This is why a cochlear implant can really seem like a hearing miracle.
And, most importantly, cochlear implants help to bring back the sounds you’re
missing. With cochlear implants, you may once again enjoy conversations with
friends and family, talk on the phone, hear the sounds of nature or see your
child’s face light up as they hear your voice for the very first time. Please
note that cochlear implants are often covered by most insurance plans.
