4. A cochlear implant is a
surgically implanted
electronic device that
provides a sense of
sound to a person who
is profoundly deaf or
severely hard of hearing.

5. While hearing devices
amplify sounds so that
damaged parts of the ear
can detect those
sounds, cochlear implants
bypass the damaged
portions of the ear and
directly stimulate the
auditory nerve.

6. Hearing through a
cochlear implant is not
like normal hearing and
it takes time to learn
how to hear with the
device after it is
implanted.

7. To determine whether
you are a candidate for
cochlear implants, it is

9. If your world has become
silent and hearing aids no
longer provide the results
you expect, do not
hesitate to talk to your
Audiologist to see if this
surgical solution is right
for you.
