Invisible In-the-Canal (IIC)

IIC instruments are the smallest custom hearing aids available. They sit in the second bend of the canal and are nearly invisible to the naked eye. They are designed for mild to moderate hearing loss.
Hearing aids come in a wide range of technology levels and styles. They are offered in various levels ranging from ‘Entry-level’ to ‘Premium’. Within each level different technology and features are available. Some are designed for active lifestyles where others are for those in need of a ‘Power’ instrument. Choosing the right one depends on your specific needs and requirements. Our hearing care professionals are experts in each and can help you make the right choice.

CIC instruments fit deeply into the ear canal. Slightly larger than the IIC, they are still relatively hard to see. They are designed for mild to moderate hearing loss.
ITC instruments sit in the lower portion of the outer ear bowl. Since they are slightly larger than the CIC, they are able to hold additional features. These include a larger battery, directional microphones, and volume controls. They are designed for mild to moderate hearing loss.
Full shell instruments fill the entire outer ear bowl. Due to their larger size, they allow for more features and functions. These include a larger battery, directional microphones, volume controls, and can fit larger receivers for more severe hearing losses. They are designed for mild to severe hearing losses.
Mini BTE styles are designed to hide behind the outer ear and have ultra-thin tubing to discreetly route sound into the ear. The tubing typically connects to a soft tip that sits in the ear canal but doesn’t occlude it. The result is a natural, open feeling as airflow and sound enter the ear naturally around the tip, while amplified sound enters through the tip. This is known as “open fitting” and is recommended for mild to moderate hearing loss.
RITE hearing aid styles are BTEs that have the speaker built into the ear tip instead of the main body of the hearing aid. It is slightly larger than the Mini BTE but is still relatively unnoticeable when worn. They are designed for mild to severe hearing loss.
BTEs with earmolds have a longer shape that follows the contour behind the outer ear. Their larger size enables them to house features such as a program button and volume control. The earmold color and style, as well as the wearer’s hairstyle, determine exactly how they’ll look on each person. They are designed for mild to profound hearing loss.
All of the hearing aids we offer come with a risk-free trial period, and Loss & Damage Insurance for at least one year from purchase date.
