Sonova and its brands provide leading hearing technology for its customers.

"Six years ago, I experienced a severe sudden hearing loss in my right ear, which unfortunately left me with one-sided deafness at the age of 26. On top of that, I had strong ear noises and tinnitus. The cochlear implants from Advanced Bionics were already my favorite during the preliminary examination at the hospital. What made the difference for me was the unique T-Mic and the collaboration with Phonak. Moreover, after I made my decision, my mom ran into a former colleague who also wears AB CIs and was absolutely thrilled. I felt that fate confirmed my decision. The cochlear implants have truly enriched my life from the ground up. I was lucky to have good speech comprehension right from the start, which boosted my confidence significantly. I no longer have the ear noises or tinnitus. I feel like I’m part of the world around me again. I am now much more active and social, something I used to avoid as much as possible. Additionally, I gained a new friend. She was implanted the day after me, and guess which implant she wears?
