Types of Hearing Aids Available at America Hears

America Hears offers three types of hearing aids: behind the ear, in the ear (also known as custom fit), and open fit. Each of these hearing aid products offers particular benefits for people with varying stages of hearing loss:

• Open fit style hearing aid products are available as an acoustic thin tube style or a speaker-in-the-ear (SIE) style. The acoustic thin tube style works well for those with a sloping high frequency hearing loss. The SIE is suitable for those with a sloping high frequency or wide range hearing loss. These types of hearing aids are extremely small and light weight and do not occlude the ear canal, making them an attractive option for those seeking a nearly invisible hearing aid and those who have been bothered by the way their own voice sounds when wearing an in-the-ear hearing aid.

• In the ear hearing aids are types of hearing aids that are tailored to an individual's ear. In-the-ear hearing aid products fit directly in the ear canal, some models being completely in the canal and some coming out into the outer ear. In the ear hearing aid models are appropriate for a wide range of hearing losses.

• Behind the ear hearing aids are ideal for those with sensitive ears (those with allergies to acrylic materials or those who are not able to tolerate the tighter fit of an in-the-ear hearing aid) and for those with even the most severe hearing loss, making them suitable for all users. Although these hearing aid products can be slightly larger in size than other types of hearing aids, they also can offer a wide range of options for the user, including volume controls, adaptive directional microphones and memory push buttons.
