Following are the hearing devices available with us:

Behind-the-Ear Hearing Aids (BTE) are among the most recognized hearing aid devices. These hearing aids fit comfortably behind the ear and are custom fitted for the particular individual. People can use this type of hearing aid to help a wide range of impairments. Both children and adults can benefit from the use of a BTE hearing aid.

Behind-Ear Hearing Aid is suitable for moderate to middle severe hearing loss impairments. This hearing aid was compactly designed and adopted the Behind-Ear wearing way. Add different size earplugs, it is comfortable to wear this hearing aid.

The sound quality of this hearing aid is wonderful, you can hear the softest whisper when you wearing this hearing aid. You will also never worry to mishearing. Automatic SMD machine processing and not manual welding, this hearing aid is as reliable as it is.

Completely in the canal hearing aids are the smallest of all the models that are available today. They fit completely into your ear canal (hence the name!) and are virtually invisible to other people – usually only a small plastic wire protrudes from your canal and maybe be visible to people who are looking very closely at your ear. The plastic wire is necessary to enable you to pull the hearing aid out of your ear – it sits too far down the canal for you to be able to pull it out without the wire.

Similar feedback problems to the ITE and ITC aids could be experienced with CIC models – always try them out first if you intend to buy a pair. Test them when you are speaking on the phone to make sure they don’t produce too much feedback.

In my experience, feedback has been less of a problem with CIC hearing aids than with ITC models – I assume this is because the receiver is further down the canal and not so close to the phone when you place it to your ear.

ITC (in-the-canal) hearing aids fit into the ear canal. They are only slightly larger than the completely-in-the-canal (CIC) hearing aid but smaller than the in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid. The ITC style is available in the programmable, digital, and conventional hearing aids.

Advantages:

• ITC hearing aids are cosmetically appealing due to small size.
• ITC instruments offer natural sound reception due to the placement of the microphone in the ear canal.

ITE models are the largest of the models that fit completely in your ear – only the BTE is larger. As the picture shows, they tend to fill the ear completely. They are less powerful than BTE aids, but more poweful then ITC or CIC aids. Usually, they are large enough to offer features such as a directional microphone, telephone switch or larger amplifier.

The electronic components in ITE aids are housed in much smaller space than with BTE aids – this means that the microphone and receiver wil be closer to each other and feedback can be a problem. This is also the case with ITC and CIC models.

This type of aid is normally recommended to people with mild to moderately-severe hearing loss. Consideration should be given to their size – they are more difficult to handle than BTE aids and fitting and removing them can be fiddly.
