Why Choose an IIC Hearing Aid?

Because IIC hearing aids sit deep within the ear canal, they’re virtually invisible to others during everyday conversation. Their placement also takes advantage of the ear’s natural shape to help collect sound, which can support a more natural listening experience for the right candidate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

IIC hearing aids sit even deeper in the ear canal than CIC models, making them the most discreet style available — virtually invisible during everyday conversation. Their placement also takes advantage of the ear’s natural shape to support a more natural listening experience.

Cons

Because of their small size and deep placement, IIC hearing aids can be more difficult to insert, remove, and handle. They’re also more susceptible to earwax blockage, and their compact size limits battery life and available features compared to larger styles.
