what is a cochlear implant?

 

A cochlear implant is an electronic device designed to help severely to profoundly deaf individuals who gain little or no benefit from hearing aids. It consists of two main parts: an internal implanted part called the implant, and an external part known as the speech processor.

The speech processor can be worn discreetly behind the ear.

I was implanted with the Med-El Combi 40+ and wear a Tempo + BTE processor.
