Types of Hearing Aids
Hearing aid styles.
Better hearing is not one size fits all, but custom fit to the individual. Today's comfortable hearing aids, the result of modern technology vary in size, shape, and power based on your ear's anatomy and your level of hearing loss. When you visit us, we will work with you to determine what type of hearing aid is right for you.
Invisible In Canal (IIC)
Appropriate for mild to moderately severe hearing loss. We offer a couple of different solutions in this category of hearing aids. Both AMP™ and Miniscopic™ iQ are 100% invisible and fit comfortably deep inside your ear's canal.* Both feature advanced digital processing which means you enjoy a better listening experience in different types of environments. Our IIC hearing aid is designed to be removed daily to promote better ear health.
