More people in our world suffer from hearing loss. It doesn't matter if they are children or adults. Therefore, the in-the-ear hearing aid is becoming an increasingly common device that helps to partially correct the situation. Naturally, he cannot completely restore the function and make a person he althy. However, it is quite capable of improving the quality of his life.
The design of such a device is quite simple. The plastic housing houses the microphone, audio transducer, ventilation hole, and program selector (select models).
In-the-ear hearing aid has one feature: it cannot be bought in a pharmacy or a specialized store. The fact is that it is made for each patient individually. This requires an impression of the ear canal. Further, the product is developed using a special program. Very often, such devices are almost invisible, but not all. There are different designs of this product, but its functionality should come first. If you are using the most beautiful or inconspicuous device, but you can’t hear well, you shouldstop using it. Choose a better device.
An intra-ear hearing aid can only compensate for the corresponding function to a significant extent when it is large enough. However, these products are very convenient and comfortable. The fact is that, unlike other devices, they consist of one element. You just need to put the device in your ear and you will hear well. Plus, it won't pop out because it's designed just for you.
In-the-ear hearing aid has improved acoustics, as the sound transducer is in close proximity to the eardrum. However, there are also certain disadvantages. For example, it is not as durable as other types of devices. In addition, such a device is less resistant to the influence of the conditions in which it will be used (humidity, rather high temperature). Occasionally, patients who use these products may experience chewing problems.
It should be noted that the presented devices can be installed both in one and in both ears. At the same time, the naturalness of the sound is preserved. Especially often young people use such devices, as they are very aesthetic and almost invisible.
There are also intracanal devices that are inserted deep into the ear canal. However, do not forget that such equipment requires battery power, which from time to timetime will have to be changed (every 4 or more days). This parameter affects the cost of the product.
In-the-ear hearing aids, ranging in price from $140 to $2,500 or more, help people lead a normal life to a great extent. Naturally, you will have to visit a doctor regularly and possibly replace the product periodically. However, you will be able to fully hear.
