Transforming Lives with Cochlear Implant Surgery in Singapore
What Is Cochlear Implant Surgery?
Cochlear implant surgery is a revolutionary procedure designed for individuals with profound hearing loss when traditional hearing aids are no longer effective. Unlike hearing aids that amplify sound, cochlear implants bypass damaged areas of the ear, directly stimulating the auditory nerve. This advanced technology restores the ability to perceive sounds clearly and live a fulfilling life.

How Does a Cochlear Implant Work?
Cochlear implants consist of two main components:
- External Component: A sound processor worn behind the ear captures sound and converts it into digital signals.
- Internal Component: Surgically implanted in the ear, it receives signals and directly stimulates the auditory nerve, which sends sound information to the brain.
This advanced mechanism bypasses damaged areas of the ear and provides users with clear, high-quality sound perception.
Cochlear implants create a new hearing pathway in your ear. The new pathway moves sound from your outer ear to your inner ear. There, the implant sparks an electrical signal your auditory nerve carries to your brain. Your brain interprets the signal as speech, music or other sounds.
The Cochlear Implant Surgery Process
Undergoing cochlear implant surgery at The Hearing Centre involves the following steps:
1. Eligibility Assessment
Our audiologists assess your hearing abilities to determine if cochlear implant surgery is suitable for you. The evaluation includes:
