An ENT specialist such as Dr. Frank Kardos can help diagnose and offer treatment options for hearing loss in Wayne, New Jersey. 
Understanding which hearing aid will work best for you or a loved one is no easy task, which is why Dr. Kardos is there to help. He'll suggest the best options to all of his patients, according to your personal needs.
Types of Hearing Aids
The most popular hearing aid is the IIC or invisible-in-the canal hearing aid. This custom-fitted type is inserted further into the ear canal than other types. This is what makes it invisible when it is worn. They are designed to be removed daily to promote the best ear health. They work best for mild to moderate hearing loss. The CIC hearing aid is custom-made to fit completely in the ear canal. However, a small plastic handle shows outside of the canal, which is used to properly insert and remove the device. This also works for mild to moderate hearing loss in Wayne, New Jersey.
The ITC or in-the-canal hearing aid is custom made so that a smaller portion of the hearing aid shows in the outer ear. The ITE or in the ear type shows on the outer portion of the ear and is for individuals who don’t want anything directly in their ear canal.
The RIC or receiver in canal device is barely visible when worn and used for those who seek an open and comfortable fit. The behind-the-ear-hearing aid directs amplified sound into the ear bud.
Ultimately, Dr. Kardos has experience offering suggestions of the best hearing aid option for each of his patients. To learn more about treating hearing loss in Wayne, New Jersey, and to get a hearing aid of your own, call to schedule an appointment today at 973-956-1200.
