A cochlear implant is a medical device designed to help individuals with severe to profound hearing loss who receive limited benefit from hearing aids. Unlike hearing aids that amplify sound, a cochlear implant bypasses damaged parts of the inner ear and directly stimulates the auditory nerve, allowing the patient to perceive sound more clearly.
At MedEase Health, we connect you with India’s leading ENT surgeons and advanced hospitals to ensure safe and successful cochlear implant surgeries with full post-op support.
Cochlear implants are ideal for:
Children born with severe to profound hearing loss
Adults who have lost hearing later in life
Patients who gain minimal or no benefit from hearing aids
Individuals with bilateral (both ear) hearing loss
The device has two main components:
Worn behind the ear, includes:
Microphone
Sound processor
Transmitter
Surgically placed under the skin:
Receiver-stimulator (implanted in the skull)
Electrode array (inserted into the cochlea)
The microphone picks up sound, the processor converts it into signals, and the implant sends those signals directly to the auditory nerve.
Audiometry tests
Imaging (MRI/CT scans)
Counseling for patient and family
Performed under general anesthesia
Small incision made behind the ear
Internal device implanted and electrode inserted into cochlea
Duration: Around 2–3 hours
Implant is activated after 2–4 weeks
Requires speech and hearing therapy for best results
Recovery is smooth with minimal pain. Key phases include:
1–2 weeks for surgical healing
Device activation after healing
Several months of auditory therapy and speech-language sessions
Full hearing improvement can take 6–12 months
The cost of cochlear implant surgery in India typically ranges from ₹5.5 lakhs to ₹15 lakhs, depending on:
Brand of the implant (Cochlear, Med-El, Advanced Bionics)
Surgeon’s experience
Hospital location and facilities
At MedEase, we provide:
