A CIC (Completely-in-Canal) hearing aid is a tiny device that sits deep inside your ear canal, almost like a hidden assistant for your hearing. There are many clinics for hearing aid devices available in the market.
People love CIC aids because they're really discreet. They fit snugly in your ear, so they feel natural and cozy. As we mentioned, they're almost invisible!
Before choosing a CIC hearing aid, think about a few things. Do you know if they're best for mild to moderate hearing loss? They're great for that, but not as strong for severe cases. Also, since they're small, you'll need to change the batteries more often. Handling them might take a bit of practice, but no worries, you'll get the hang of it.
Compared to others types of hearing aids such as Invisible-in-Canal (IIC) or Behind-the-Ear (BTE) aids, CIC aids are the most low-key and comfy. Imagine being at a party and hearing clearly without anyone noticing your tiny CIC aid!
The price of hearing aids varies. Usually, you get them from private audiologists rather than through public healthcare. Absolutely think about where you'll buy yours and how much you're willing to spend.
