Single-Sided Deafness and Directional Hearing

Patient Case

A 53-year-old patient loses his hearing in the right ear after sudden hearing loss. Initial CROS treatment fails to meet his needs for directional hearing and reduced listening effort.

 

This patient case reveals which new perspectives the ENT specialist opens up for his patient and why early referral to a hearing implant center can make a significant difference.
