Discover how cochlear implants work. Cochlear implants can help restore hearing to people with severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss. With this type of hearing loss, the hair cells in the inner ear are damaged and can’t detect sounds properly. A cochlear implant bypasses these damaged hair cells and sends electric signals to the brain, where they are interpreted as sound.

The SYNCHRONY 2 cochlear implant paired with the SONNET 3 or RONDO 3 audio processor provides cochlear implant users with the latest technology from MED-EL to deliver the closest to natural hearing experience.

At MED-EL, helping people with hearing loss has been our passion from the very beginning when Ingeborg and Erwin Hochmair pioneered the modern cochlear implant. Since then, we’ve become the leading hearing implant company—with solutions for every type of hearing loss and active in over 140 countries around the world. Learn more at medel.com/about-medel.
