Lyric Invisible Hearing Aid

The World’s first and only 100% invisible hearing aid, that can be worn 24/7 is available at Pindrop Hearing.

Introducing Lyric

Lyric is the first and only extended wear hearing device that is 100% invisible. Lyric is comfortably placed in the ear canal by one of our highly trained and experienced Lyric Audiologists at Pindrop Hearing and can be worn 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for up to 3 months at a time. No surgery or anaesthesia is required. Lyric is positioned completely inside the ear canal, so it uses your ear’s natural anatomy to provide exceptional sound quality. Lyric lets you hear better and live life to the fullest!

Benefits of Lyric:

• The placement of Lyric deep in the ear canal makes it totally 100% invisible.
• No one will know why you are hearing better except you.
• Effortless Hearing, 24/7
• Lyric can be used during your daily activities, such as exercising, showering, talking on the phone, and sleeping.
• There are no batteries to change, no maintenance is needed, and no daily insertion or removal is required – so no hassle at all!
• Exceptional, Natural Sound Quality
• Lyric’s placement deep in the ear canal allows the outer ear (the pinna) to direct sound into the ear canal naturally, resulting in improved directionality and localization, reduced feedback, and improved high frequency gain.

How Lyric Works

Lyric® was built by a team of ENT physicians, audiologists, and engineers around three key concepts that hearing professionals have known for years:

• Sound quality improves with proximity to the eardrum.
• Many people with hearing loss are dissatisfied with their hearing aid options.
• Many people with hearing loss want a hassle-free, invisible solution.

Lyric is comfortably placed in the ear canal by one of our highly trained Lyric Audiologists during a routine clinic visit, without surgery or anesthesia. Once placed, Lyric is programmed to your specific hearing needs by your Lyric audiologist. You can adjust the settings and volume on your Lyric devices as needed, as well as turn them on and off.

Lyric Technology features:

• Biocompatible soft foam seals engineered to contour to the ear canal; safe to wear 24/7, months at a time*
• Proprietary mechanical and coating technology developed to protect the device from moisture and earwax
• A proprietary battery designed to last up to 120 days eliminating the need to change and buy hearing aid batteries
• A programmable sound processing system designed to work millimeters from the eardrum, allowing for both microphone and receiver placement in the ear canal
