About
Hearing Aids
RECEIVER IN THE EAR HEARING AIDS (RITE)
The device is slightly smaller than a BTE and is connected by a thin wire to a speaker in the ear. These are much less visible than BTE’s.
CROS/BICROS HEARING AIDS
A Cros system is used when you have lost all of your hearing in one ear. The aid in the ear with hearing loss receives the sound from the deaf side and sends it to a hearing aid in the good ear. This allows all the sounds to be heard from all around.
A Bicros Hearing Aid is similar to a Cros System except the aid receives the sound from the deaf side and mixes it with its own input and then amplifies the mixed signal.
RECHARGEABLE HEARING AIDS
Rechargeable aids can be charged overnight for a full day’s use.
They remove the inconvenience of changing batteries and are beneficial for people with dexterity problems.
BEHIND THE EAR HEARING AIDS (BTE)
This is a small device which fits behind your ear. This is attached to an ear mould made to the shape of your ear.
INVISIBLE HEARING AIDS
Discreet, Invisible, In the Ear (ITE) Hearing Aids.
These aids fit entirely inside your ear canal.
In the Canal (ITC) Completely in Canal (CIC) Invisible in Canal (IIC)
In the Canal aids are a little smaller than ITE aids and fit into the opening part of the ear.
Completely in Canal and Invisible in Canal are both barely visible and fit even further into the opening of the ear.
These can be quite small and awkward to handle and are also not powerful enough for severe hearing loss.

CHOOSING YOUR HEARING AIDS
We offer free impartial advice on which Aids will best suit your hearing loss if you provide us with a recent audiogram.
PURCHASING YOUR HEARING AIDS
We will liaise with you fully whilst you choose the best Hearing Aids to suit your needs. Once payment has been received we will programme them to your latest audiogram for no extra charge prior to shipping them to your home address. Please note that we prefer to only programme aids if the audiogram is no older than three months. Aids can also be sent without being programmed and can be set up by your own audiologist. We offer a 60 day return period with a 20% restocking fee, should you for any reason not be happy with your purchase. Your statutory rights are not affected.
AFTER AND REMOTE CARE
If you have purchased Hearing Aids which have remote access and they have been programmed by us prior to shipping then we do have the facility to support you by making changes remotely to your program settings.
We do advise and ask you to confirm that you have made arrangements with an audiologist local to you for any service care that may be required.
REMOTE CARE
Many modern Hearing Aids now come with Remote Care. This enables us to adjust the programming of the Hearing Aid from here in the UK to anywhere in the world. We can therefore make immediate adjustments for you whilst you are in the comfort of your own home. Please note that this facility is only available if we have programmed your Hearing Aids for you prior to shipping.
