Having a problem with your hearing can turn a normal day into
a nightmare! You only half-hear conversations and you end up in trouble
because you misheard what you were told.

Despite these problems, many people with even quite severe
hearing loss still try to cope without wearing hearing aids. Hearing aids
have long suffered from having a poor image and are considered impractical,
as there are some things that you just can't do whilst wearing one. Some
people find that there are other problems that can occur whilst using a
hearing aid. These include feedback, sound distortion and a feeling of
discomfort, caused by having the ear mould placed in their ear canal. In
extreme cases, these kinds of problems cause hearing aid users more actual
stress than benefit!

Happily, there is now a solution for this problem: a fully implantable
hearing system called Carina.

Once implanted, Carina users hear much better and can begin to take
charge of their everyday lives. Carina picks up sounds, using a microphone
implanted under the skin, and transmits amplified signals directly into the
middle ear. This completely avoids the potential embarrassment of being seen
to need a hearing aid, as well as any possibility of other irritating comfort
issues. In addition, Carina users regularly report that they benefit by
experiencing a more natural quality of sound.

Carina is especially beneficial to hearing impaired people who like to
enjoy an active lifestyle. Carina enhances quality of life, not only at work
but also during leisure time, whilst patients play sport, swim, take a
shower, or simply have a sauna!
