Hearing aids have come a long way since the first bulky behind-the-ear models from the 1960s. Today’s small hearing aids are comfortable and discreet, and they vary in size, color, special features, and the way they fit in your ears. Hearing aids used to be powered by analog technology, but just like the rest of the world, they have gone digital. The latest generation of invisible hearing aids is now smarter and smaller than ever, allowing you to hear more of the sounds around you, with the device being hardly noticeable in or around your ear. Invisible hearing aids are hardly detectable by others, but you will surely notice the difference.

Invisible hearing aids – also known as hearing devices – sit deep inside your ear canal. They come in two forms: instant fit, which can be worn straight away, and custom-fit, which are created from a mould made of your ear – these take a bit longer to create.

There are two types of invisible hearing devices, known as completely in the canal (CIC) and invisible in the canal (IIC).

CIC aids only fill the ear canal. IICs, meanwhile, are our smallest hearing aids and the most discreet type available, fitting deeply into the ear canal.
