• Cochlear Implant : A cochlear implant is a surgically implanted device that provides a sense of sound to a person who is profoundly deaf or severely hard of hearing. Unlike hearing aids, which amplify sound, cochlear implants bypass damaged parts of the ear i.e., the cochlea and directly stimulate the auditory nerve, allowing individuals to receive sound signals.

Components of a Cochlear Implant:

• External Processor
• Internal Implant

Benefits:

• Improved ability to hear speech.
• Greater ability to engage in conversations, even in noisy environments.
• Enhanced appreciation of music and environmental sounds.

Considerations:

• Cochlear implants require a surgical procedure and subsequent therapy for effective use. They may not restore normal hearing but can significantly improve the perception of sounds. Outcomes can vary based on several factors, including the duration of deafness and the health of the auditory nerve.
