[QUOTE="hazridi, post: 2192650, member: 69189"] There are a number of singlesided deaf users on Hearing Journey and they all seem to really like having dual-sided hearing. Also, CIs are capable of restoring far more hearing than just bumping up a profoundly-deaf person to "severe" levels. My audiogram went from No Response to 20dB or less at all frequencies. That's within the normal hearing range. Is the sound the same? No. But if you have a source of non-CI hearing, most of what you perceive will be the sound that you're used to. I'm bimodal (I wear a CI and a hearing aid on the opposite ear) and that's how things work for me. [/QUOTE]
