Hummingbird provides the very best hearing aid devices from all leading manufacturers at the very best prices.
Hearing Aids come in all different shapes and sizes. Here are some of the most common styles.
In-the-ear (ITE)
ITE hearing aids sit in the outer ear (the working parts are all contained within this earmould) and may be used for a variety of hearing losses.
In the Canal (ITC)
Slightly larger than the completely-in-the-canal (CIC) hearing aid but smaller than the in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid
Receiver-in-the-ear (RITE)
Slightly larger than the completely-in-the-canal (CIC) hearing aid but smaller than the in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid
Behind-the-ear (BTE)
This type of hearing aid sits behind the outer ear and connects via a plastic tube to a custom made earmould that sits in the ear canal and delivers sound into the ear
Completely in-the-canal (CIC)
Smaller than ITE aids, CIC hearing aids sit right in the ear canal and are less visible, but are generally less suited to more severe hearing losses.
Nano (IIC) Invisible in Canal
Nano, or “Invisible in the canal” hearing aids are the most discreet hearing aids yet. Because of their tiny size and deeper position in the ear canal, they are near invisible when worn. So comfortable in your ear, you can almost forget that you’re wearing one.
