Until the turn of the century, there was little that could be done for a range of hearing issues, and early devices were cumbersome and generally ineffective.

Cochlear Implant Devices - The latest generation of digital hearing aids by-pass the natural form of transmitting the audio signals to the inner ear, and by surgically implanting a tiny device, the sound is transmitted through the bone and to the inner ear. This type of device can work wonders for a person who has little or no hearing ability, and the Australian government are, in some cases, prepared to fund this surgery.
