A cochlear implant is an electronic device that
restores partial hearing to individuals with severe to profound hearing loss
who do not benefit from a conventional hearing aid. It is surgically implanted
in the inner ear and activated by a device worn outside the ear. Cochlear
implants bypass damaged hair cells and convert speech and environmental sounds
into electrical signals and send these signals to the hearing nerve.
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. At Primus, we firmly believe that
prevention is better than cure and follow it religiously by advising patients
to opt for a routine ENT check- ups so that any abnormalities can be detected
at the early stages, helping in better diagnosis and cure.
