Lyric is an extended wear hearing aid. What this means is that it can stay in your
ear canal for months at a time. The FDA
(Food and Drug Administration) has approved the Lyric device to remain in the
ear canal for up to 4 months at a time.
The longevity of the device in your ear canal all depends on your
personal body chemistry, meaning wax build up and how much your ear canals
sweat. The average lifespan of Lyric is
about 2 months. At the end of the two
months, we remove the old devices and replace them with new devices. The Lyric device doesn’t not fit
everyone. The only way to know if it is
the right device for you is to try it. Your
audiologist first needs to measure the length and width of your ear canal. To answer your question, yes there is something
new with Lyric. There are two new
sizes. There used to be only 5 sizes and
now there are 7 sizes. Lyric added an
XXS and XXL. If you are still interested
in Lyric but were contraindicated in the past based on sizing, make an
appointment to try Lyric again. Allow
your audiologist to resize your ear and allow you to trial it again for 30 days
risk free.
Life sounds great! Enjoy every moment!
