For many people, discretion is an important factor when choosing a hearing aid. If you’re looking for a hearing solution that is both effective and discreet, invisible hearing aids may be worth considering.<\/h3>\n

Also known as custom hearing aids<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>, these devices are individually designed to fit the unique shape of your ear. During your appointment, your Audiologist will take an impression of each ear, which is then used to create hearing aids tailored specifically to you. Because they fit inside the ear canal, custom hearing aids are often referred to as “invisible” hearing aids.<\/p>\n

Types of Invisible Hearing Aids<\/h4>\n

There are four main types of custom hearing aids available:<\/p>\n

In-the-Ear (ITE)<\/h5>\n

ITE hearing aids sit within the outer portion of the ear and are custom-made for comfort and fit. While they are discreet, they are generally more visible than smaller custom hearing aid styles.<\/p>\n

In-the-Canal (ITC)<\/h5>\n

ITC hearing aids are smaller than ITE devices and are designed to sit partly within the ear canal. They offer a more discreet appearance while remaining easy to handle and maintain.<\/p>\n

Completely-in-the-Canal (CIC)<\/h5>\n

CIC hearing aids fit entirely within the ear canal, making them one of the most discreet hearing aid options available. However, individuals with particularly narrow ear canals may not be suitable candidates for this style.<\/p>\n

Invisible-in-canal (IIC)<\/h5>\n

IIC hearing aids are similar to CICs, but sit deeper into the ear canal. This type of hearing aid is perhaps the most discreet device there is. As with CIC aids, individuals with particularly narrow ear canals may not be suited to this type of hearing device.<\/p>\n

Once you have had a hearing test with your Audiologist, they will be able to talk you through the options you have for your specific hearing loss and ear size \/ shape.<\/p>\n
