CIC vs IIC
Look at the difference in size between a standard completely-in-the-canal vs. the new invisible-in-the-canal hearing aid. Simply amazing.

Starkey OtoLens
Starkey has developed the first custom, completely invisible, fully programmable digital hearing aid called the OtoLens. The new OtoLens is placed so deep in the ear canal it cannot be seen. What's so amazing about this product is that it features top of the line technology.
OtoLens delivers:
Unlike other deep insertion hearing aids which must be inserted by an audiologist (such as the Lyric) OtoLens can be inserted or removed by the patient at anytime. This not only promotes ear health, it also allows the patient to remove the hearing aid when showering or swimming. I don't know about you but I like to clean my ears when I shower!
Safety
Most people take their hearing aids off at night to sleep, as it maybe hard to sleep when you can hear everything. Since the Lyric cannot be removed, the patient will probably turn it off at night. When the Lyric or other deep insertion hearing aid is turned off it is like having ear plugs in. The patient will then experience additional hearing loss up to 40 dB. This can be especially dangerous as the patient may not be able to hear a fire alarm at night. However with the OtoLens the patient can remove the hearing aid at night and still have their natural hearing.
Cost
Not only does the OtoLens have superior digital technology it comes with a much smaller price tag. The OtoLens is priced at $6,995 and will last up to 5 years. The Lyric on the other hand which uses analog technology costs $3,600 per year. Over a 5 year period the cost to have the Lyric would be $18,000.
The OtoLens is the best invisible hearing aid on the market today! Where other companies have created analog standard fit hearing aids, Starkey has created a product that has superior technology, costs less, and promotes ear health.
