A Subtle Solution: MHA introduces made-to-blend-in hearing aids

Hearing aids are not a one-size-fits-all solution. No two hearing aid users have the same preferences, needs, and lifestyles. One of these preferences is how subtle a hearing aid can be.

As the premier hearing care solutions provider in the country, Manila Hearing Aid (MHA) has always been in the pursuit of introducing not only the latest and most advanced hearing aid technologies but also products that suit patients' needs and personal styles.

This is where Oticon Own™ comes in. One of the latest models of Oticon is designed to meet individual needs; offering hearing aids that are custom fit to any ear shape, or personal style, while experiencing unique and personalized listening experience.

With a selection of three models and colors to match personal preferences, Oticon Own™ enables patients confidently wear hearing aids that seamlessly blend into their daily lives.

Custom-made and tailored to fit each user's unique ear shape, Oticon Own redefines the hearing aid experience, empowering wearers to embrace life to the fullest without worries.

"This year has been a time of great achievement for our company. We have introduced Oticon Own to the country, a hearing aid that is designed to blend in and match every unique lifestyle our patients have. We are always looking for ways to improve the hearing aid journey of our patients, and Oticon Own is a perfect example of this. We are proud to offer this to our patients for we believe that it will make a significant difference in their lives," said General Manager Dr. Liza Abaño-Robles.

With Oticon Own™, users will have a custom-fit hearing aid that seamlessly blends in while enjoying a personalized listening experience. Categorized within the In-The-Ear to Completely-in-the-Canal range, Oticon Own™ presents a subtle look that effortlessly matches a user's everyday style.

The hearing health care industry evolves over time and so does the purpose of developing hearing aids. Before, hearing aids are seen as devices only to hear but now, it's way beyond that. It is the patient's lifestyle and personality, just like the goal of Oticon Own, to blend in while the patient has access to a full sound scene," adds Dr. Abaño-Robles.

What sets Oticon Own™ apart is its groundbreaking technology. It features the world's first in-the-ear hearing aid with a Deep Neural Network (DNN) powered by the advanced Polaris platform — prominently known as the BrainHearing™ technology.

This technology provides richer sound quality while reducing the listening effort for the user. The DNN is trained with 12 million real-life sound scenes and processes it like how the brain naturally distinguishes, analyzes, and balances each sound to help users thrive in complex environments whether indoors or outdoors, alone or with groups of people.
Besides its discreet design and technology, Oticon Own™ also caters to a user's need to stay connected anytime and anywhere. With Oticon Own™, users can seamlessly connect and stream audio directly from their iPhone, iPad, and select Android devices through hands-free communication and Bluetooth connectivity. Users can also conveniently control the hearing aid using the Oticon ON app.

Oticon Own™ runs on batteries, which can be purchased through MHA Online.
