Cochlear Implants
A cochlear implant is an electronic device that restores partial
hearing to the deaf. It is surgically implanted in the inner
ear and activated by a device worn outside the ear.
Unlike a hearing aid, it does not make sound louder or
clearer. Instead, the device bypasses damaged parts of
the auditory system and directly stimulates the nerve of
hearing, allowing individuals who are profoundly hearing
impaired to receive sound.
