Hearing Aids are available in many
styles to suit lots of different people with differing needs. At Celtic Hearing
we specialise in Open- Fit Technology which uses a
slim tube set like this:
These
tubes allow natural sound to pass through the soft umbrella at the tip, reducing
the 'blocked-in' feeling (occlusion) and making the whole listening experience
more comfortable. Models using this technology are shown below. You can choose
from wide variety of colours, technology and styles.
Conventional
Technology: Celtic Hearing also supplies hearing aids in all conventional ITE
(In-the-Ear) sizes, from CIC (Completely in the Canal) to Full Shell
In
addition Celtic Hearing supplies a full range of BTEs (Behind-the-Ear) instruments,
that will fit moderate to profound losses.
.
Some
of the latest hearing instruments are based on an evolution of the BTE fitting.
They feature a speaker or 'Receiver' mounted within the ear canal. They are
often referred to as RIC - Receiver in Canal or RITE-Receiver in the Ear. The
Oticon Delta (below) falls into this category as do the Unitron Moxi and Bernafon
Brite.
