Invisible Hearing Aids

What are Invisible Hearing Aids?

Out of sight, out of mind? Many people worry about their hearing aids looking conspicuous, or interfering with their glasses or masks. Invisible hearing aids can help. These types of hearing devices sit inside your ear and are nearly undetectable. Better yet, with Oticon’s advanced technology, even the smallest size packs a big punch. Are invisible-in-the-canal hearing aids right for you?

What is an Ivisible-in-the-Canal Hearing Aid?

Technology has come a long way since the days of bulky hearing aids. Many people were turned off by the idea of hearing aids because of their size or discomfort. However, those days are over, as today’s technology allows hearing devices to get smaller and smaller. Invisible-in-the-canal (IIC) hearing aids are just about, well, invisible.

They are the smallest custom hearing aids available and are designed and molded to fit perfectly inside your ear canal – making them nearly undetectable to everyone around you, aside from a small wire to help you easily insert and remove them. IICs consist of three basic parts:

A microphone, to pick up all the sounds you need to hear.
An amplifier, which increases the volume of those sounds.
A speaker, which delivers the sounds to your ears.

What are the Advantages of IIC Hearing Aids?

Invisible-in-the-canal hearing aids are beneficial for those with mild-to-moderately severe hearing loss and are a truly invisible hearing device. The greatest advantage of IIC hearing aids for most people is their small size and discreet appearance. Because they sit so deep in the ear canal, IICs are difficult to spot, and allow the hearing aid to work with the ear to offer a more natural sound experience.

This position inside the ear canal also provides the following benefits:

Less likely to pick up wind noises when outside.
Better ease of use with telephones and headsets.
Specialized and custom fit to your ear canal.
Sit comfortably and securely in the ear.
No external tubes or wires to catch on clothing, masks, hats, or glasses.
IICs aren’t for everyone, however, and you should always consult with your hearing care provider before making a final decision.

This is to say that Dr. Olson is the Masterless One in the practice of audiology - and his staff are absolutely peerless. As one of their patients for over 5 years, I continue to be impressed by the depth of their knowledge and their constructive application of it to my needs. This includes their ever-evolving technologically advanced equipment and techniques. The foundation of their practice and the starting point with every patient is based upon their advanced listening skills and sensitivities to the nuances of our individual needs. Above all, I hold Dr. Olson in the highest esteem because for many years he has been so giving of his time and talents volunteering humanitarian services to hearing-challenged persons on several continents. To the reader of this note, I say, you may be confident of receiving the best of care at Dr. Olson's Hear Care.

Bottomline: HearCare Audiology Center in Sarasota, FL provides the best service of ANY health care organization that I have EVER encountered. Here is my story: My ears had become increasingly painful for a period of over a month. In addition, my hearing had become so poor that I was getting really worried. How could I function in life if my hearing kept deteriorating? How could I continue to perform my job? In a panic, I drove to HearCare Audiology Center on a Friday afternoon. I had no reservation for an appointment, but I felt desperate to get professional help. I explained my situation to the compassionate staff. Dr. Jeffrey Olson was on his way out and overheard my story. He put aside his immediate weekend plans to help me, a suffering and worried patient. Dr. Olson professionally and correctly diagnosed my problem as severe wax build up over a period of several years in both ears. Dr. Olson used a high tech water machine to painlessly and quickly clear all of impacted wax out of my ears. Dr. Olson is a true professional who has mastered the audiology profession. Now that my ears have been totally cleared out, my hearing has never been better. I feel like I have my old life back again !!! THANK YOU DR. OLSON AND HEARCARE AUDIOLOGY CENTER STAFF FOR SHOWING COMPASSION TO ME ON A FRIDAY AFTERNOON. YOU PUT ASIDE YOUR WEEKEND PLANS TO TREAT ME AND HEAL ME !!!! DEAR READER...IF YOU HAVE HEARING ISSUES, PLEASE RUN.... DON'T WALK TO HEARCARE AUDIOLOGY CENTER. THEY WILL SHOW COMPASSION TOWARDS YOU AND THEN HEAL YOU !!!!!! 😊 Sincerely, Dave McAfee, Registered Professional Engineer
