They say the result is a more natural listening experience with less effort. Alta2, Nera2 and Ria2, are available in a wide range of styles including a smaller design for their very popular minRITE style. RITE and miniRITE styles can also now be fit with a more powerful Receiver Mold option, which increases the fitting range of these more discreet styles to meet the needs of more patients.The new range will be available in our hearing centres in Stillorgan and Fairview, Dublin, Ardee & Letterkenny.

What Oticon Had To Say

Better performance, improved personalization, more satisfaction

Inium Sense introduces a range of next generation BrainHearing technology benefits.  The new Voice Aligned Compression (VAC+) fitting rationale with Soft Speech Booster improves the audibility of soft sounds.  Inium Sense solutions factor in more patient sound preferences, such as soft sound perception, to provide a better, more personalised first-time fit and less fine-tuning to facilitate patient acceptance and long-term satisfaction.

The integrated Tinnitus SoundSupport with user-friendly fitting software enables practitioners to customize settings to patients’ needs.  Built-in ocean and broadband sounds help ease the effects of tinnitus. More sounds can be accessed through the new Oticon Tinnitus App, available for free download on the App Store. Oticon also offers practitioners counselling and support tools for tinnitus treatment management.

New Styles 

The Alta2, Nera2 and Ria2 hearing aids are available in styles and price points to suit a wide range of needs and preferences.  Oticon have introduced a new miniRITE style which features a more compact and discreet design with an easy-to-feel push button. As before, all BTE and RITE style devices in the hearing aid families are designed to withstand active lifestyles and are IP58 classified, demonstrating a high degree of water resistance.
