Three basic types of hearing aids
Receiver in the Ear (RITE)
RITE hearing aids are in effect a combination of the other two types - some of the electronics sit behind the ear, and some are inside the ear. This means they may be more discreet than BTE types, but still offer their sophisticated sound processing technology and ability to link to other devices.
Behind the Ear (BTE)
As the name suggests, all the electronics in BTEs are in a small casing that sits behind the ear, and sound is fed into the ear canal via a small plastic tube. The sound processing technology in these hearing aids tends to be more sophisticated, and they can be linked with other devices such as mobile phones and TVs.
In the Ear (ITE) and Completely in the Canal (CIC)
These types of hearing aids are custom-made to fit snugly in the user's ear canal, making them very discreet. ITEs can include volume control and may be suitable for people with substantial hearing loss, whereas CICs may not be suitable for these people, or those with small ear canals.
