Air-conduction hearing aids with receiver-in-the-ear (RITE) technology amplify sound for individuals with mild to profound hearing loss. These devices use a behind-the-ear (BTE) casing with a microphone and amplifier connected via wire to a small speaker placed in the ear canal, delivering clear sound waves directly to the eardrum.
RITE hearing aids are typically classified based on their power output and customization features, often requiring prescription or professional fitting. They are commonly supplied as custom-fitted devices, tailored to the user’s ear anatomy and hearing needs, and may include programmable settings for personalized sound adjustment.
