What I added was "100% deaf on both ears since birth." and look at the time, when I edited it. In doubt I hope the admin can see a history with previous versions. It was not. No one can be "20 or 40 years old". No one affected themselves asks such a question. Clearly hypothetically. And...

For me, as a hearing person... If I were to become deaf, I would even get an CI, if the sound were like they claim. I could understand most of the news instantly and if it becomes better over time, good. The results which CI's offer really convicted me. The human technique is astonishing...

My longer answer hasn't been approved by the moderator (yet). It was "clean", let's see... Hopefully it's not lost. Anyway... This video "Hear And Now" Trailer - YouTube at the beginning they say that they with age around 65 have heard never anything. And at 1:40 min they switch on the...

Someone never heard anything for their whole lifetime. But is now already, let's say over 20 or 40 years old. 100% deaf on both ears since birth. What does happen when they receive a cochlear implant? Can they learn to hear something or can't they hear anything? If they can't learn to...
