    Behind-The-Ear

    Behind-the-ear hearing aids are designed to be on top or sit behind the ear with tubing that directs the sound down into the ear canal. The hearing aid comes in two forms: receiver-in-the-ear and receiver-in-the-canal, depending on the manufacturer.

    Behind-the-ear hearing aids come with a rechargeable battery option and are more likely to go with advanced technology and wireless connectivity to devices. The telecoil option is commonly available with this type of hearing aid. The hearing aid is obvious.

     

    In-The-Ear

    In-the-canal hearing aid situated in the lower portion of the outer ear, making them comfortable and easy to use. They are slightly larger than in-the-ear hearing aids.

    Due to their sizes, they can have additional features such as directional microphones and manual control. In addition, they are discreet, unlike behind-the-ear hearing aids and have longer battery life.

     

    Low-Profile

    These hearing aids are more similar to in-the-canal hearing aids. However, they are large enough to have additional features and user control.
