Phonak Lyric hearing aids are a revolutionary solution for individuals with hearing loss. Designed to be worn 24/7, these unique, extended-wear hearing aids are placed deep within the ear canal, offering a natural listening experience.
Wearing a Phonak Lyric Hearing Aid
Unlike traditional hearing aids, which need to be removed at night, Lyric hearing aids are placed in the ear canal by a professional and stay in place for up to several months at a time. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Invisible Design: Lyric hearing aids sit deep in the ear canal, making them nearly invisible to others. This invisible design is part of why Lyric hearing aids stand out. They are also the only true programmable invisible hearing aid in the market.
- 24/7 Wear: No need to remove them for sleeping, showering, or exercising.
- Natural Sound Quality: Deep placement enhances sound quality, making it more natural compared to traditional hearing aids.
- Convenience: Batteries last several months, so there’s no need for frequent battery replacements.
How Do You Use Phonak Lyric Hearing Aids?
- Consult a Professional: Lyric hearing aids need to be placed by a licensed audiologist or hearing care professional. They will ensure the devices fit properly and are positioned deep enough in the ear canal to optimize performance.
- Activation and Adjustments: Your audiologist will adjust the settings to ensure optimal sound quality. Based on your hearing needs, you may need a follow-up visit to fine-tune the hearing aids.
- Wear Regularly: Once placed, there’s no need for daily removal, cleaning, or inserting batteries.
- Routine Check-ups: Although low-maintenance, it’s essential to schedule regular appointments to ensure your hearing aids are working correctly.
Battery Replacement for a Phonak Lyric Hearing Aid
Unlike traditional hearing aids that require frequent battery changes, Phonak Lyric hearing aids have an extended battery life. When it’s time to replace the device, your audiologist will handle this process.
Avoiding excessive moisture around your ears, checking for earwax buildup, and following up on all routine check-ups with your audiologist will ensure the longevity of your hearing aids and optimal performance.
