Candidates for unilateral cochlear implantation are individuals who have severe to profound hearing loss in one ear and limited benefit from hearing aids. A comprehensive evaluation by an audiologist and an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist is typically conducted to determine eligibility.
A cochlear implant consists of an external sound processor that captures and processes sound, and an internal implant that is surgically placed inside the ear. The implant stimulates the auditory nerve directly, bypassing the damaged parts of the inner ear, and allows the brain to perceive sound signals.
A unilateral cochlear implant is done for patients with hearing loss or complete deafness. Medicana Hospital in Istanbul is dedicated to providing the best implants with the help of modern techniques and skilled surgeons. An electronic device is placed underneath the skin near the ear of a patient so that the device can directly stimulate the brain to perceive sound waves.
