What's a bimodal hearing solution?
Hearing aids and cochlear implants working together
A bimodal hearing solution is when you have a cochlear implant on one ear and a hearing aid on the opposite ear.
It has been repeatedly demonstrated that users who have a cochlear implant on one ear can find great benefits from wearing a hearing aid on the other ear. Benefits discovered are:
- Superior sound quality
- Sound source localization (Spatial sense)
- Speech recognition in noise
- Music appreciation
