Benefits of CIC hearing aids:
- CIC hearing aids are very discreet—they fit completely inside the ear canal
- They are available in many of the Beltone product lines
- They are less susceptible to feedback from a telephone and other noise interference, like wind
- Hearing aids in the ear canal can sync wirelessly with your smartphone, enabling you to take calls, stream audio, and even adjust your device settings using our apps
Potential issues with CIC hearing aids:
- Their location—inside your ear—make them vulnerable to damage from ear wax and moisture
- The position of hearing aid in ear canal can cause occlusion in some patients (a feeling that the ear is plugged up)
- The small size makes them difficult for some to handle and adjust
