Are CIC Hearing Aids For Me?
Completely in Canal, or CIC hearing aids are a wildly popular
choice and its plain to see why. Actually, it's what you don't see.
People who want better sound from the outside world without the sacrifice in style naturally choose this
option over something like a
BTE unit.
Depending on the severity of your
hearing however, a completely in canal unit may not be the right fit. There are
several reasons for this.
The first is, these devices are not
powerful. Their size is the limiting factor. They're ideal for
those with mild to moderate loss of
sound.
Another thing is, CIC units don't have volume
controls. Even if they could fit on the tiny
earpiece, adjusting any of the options would be very inconvenient with it being inside your canal.
Finally, comfort is a big issue with the canal-
friendly device. It effectively cuts off the natural flow of air that
into your auditory passageways and many
users do not like this sensation.
If you don't mind the "clogged up"
sensation and have rather mild hearing
loss, then this hearing aid may very well be a
great pick for you.
If it works out, you'll enjoy many benefits
such as low to no wind noise, ease of use with telephones and the fact that others can't tell your wearing a CIC hearing
aid.
