How does an individual get hearing disorder? I've heard about infants/individual with inborn hearing impairment, why is this so? What is cochlear implant?
Answer
You can read more about hearing impairment and digital hearing aids from www.pediatriconcall.com or from the link given below:
Cochlear implant is a device that is put in the middle ear if the person has deafness due to affection of the hair cells in cochlea. Cochlea is a shell shaped organ in the middle ear which is responsible for hearing. Thus it is useful only in patients with hearing loss due to cochlear damage.
