A cochlear implant is a small, electronic medical device that provides a sense of sound to individuals with severe to profound hearing loss who do not benefit enough from traditional hearing aids.
Unlike hearing aids, which amplify sound, cochlear implants bypass damaged parts of the ear and directly stimulate the auditory nerve. They are ideal for:
- Children born with hearing impairment
- Adults who’ve lost hearing later in life
- Patients who have not improved with hearing aids
At Umang, we provide a full spectrum of cochlear implant services — from candidacy assessment and programming (mapping) to long-term therapy and parental counseling. With the right support, cochlear implants can truly restore more than sound — they restore connection.
