Sonic Radiant

At our centre in Pendik we first carry out a free hearing test; if the device is found suitable, you can then try it in your daily life. For information about this model, you can call us or write to us on WhatsApp.

Sonic Radiant in-the-ear options

Five different sizes

All the hearing aids in the Sonic Radiant family are made from an impression of your ear. The options are divided by size as follows:

• IIC: A small model that sits deep in the canal and is often not visible from the outside.
• CIC: A model that sits fully inside the ear canal.
• ITC: A model that sits at the entrance of the canal, with a small part visible.
• Half shell ITE: A model that fills part of the inner area of the outer ear.
• Full shell ITE: A model that fills the inner area of the outer ear, with the largest housing in the family.

What does size change?

Smaller models are less visible but need more dexterity to put in and take out. Models with a larger housing are more comfortable to hold, and using the battery or buttons becomes easier. The width of your ear canal, the degree of your hearing loss and the sensitivity of your fingers determine which size will be suitable.

Taking an impression and fitting

If an in-the-ear model is found suitable after the hearing test, our hearing specialist takes an impression of your ear canal. This takes a short time. When the hearing aid is ready, it is fitted, the fit is checked and it is programmed for your hearing loss. You then try it in your daily life. If the shell presses on your ear or moves when you talk, mention it at the follow-up appointment; if needed, the shell is adjusted.

Care for in-the-ear hearing aids

• Check the wax guard at the sound outlet regularly and replace it when it is blocked.
• Wipe the hearing aid with a dry cloth every evening, and do not wash the shell with water.
• If there is a vent, make sure it is open.
• At night, keep the hearing aid in a dry case, away from heat.
