What are in the ear hearing aids?

In the ear hearing (ITE) aids are small devices that sit within the outer ear and amplify sound. They consist of a customised moulded casing that fits safely inside the ear, and although visible, in the ear hearing aids are very discreet.

They boast all the latest advances in hearing technology as a very small device to provide you with optimal hearing, comfort and convenience. In ear hearing aids are suitable for adults with mild, moderate or severe hearing loss and can help you regain the freedom of confidence in your hearing ability.
