| How hearing aids work |
| |
| Inside hearing aids a microphone picks up sound waves from the air which converts to electrical signals. |
| |
| They are then made louder by an amplifier which the reciever converts the processed signal back into sound waves which is then directed into your ear. |
| |
 |
| |
| Styles of hearing aids |
| |
| Four styles to meet your sense of style |
| Hearing aids are available in four basic styles designed to meet most hearing needs: |
| |
| Micro-CIC (Completely-in-the-Canal) |
| The smallest of all hearing instruments, these are designed to hide more completely in the ear canal and are virtually invisible when worn. |
| |
| ITC (In-the-Canal) |
| Still small and discreet, these models are easy to handle and offer the user additional control functions. |
| |
| ITE (In-the-Ear) |
| This size features the widest selection of user-controlled functions and comfort features. |
| |
| BTE (Behind-the-Ear) |
| These fit snugly behind your ear and are attached to a custom earpiece molded to the shape of your outer ear. There are a variety of styles available within the BTE category including a mini-BTE. |
