‘2 Ways to Hear’ Program

To celebrate the international launch of RONDO, the world’s first single-unit processor for cochlear implants, MED-EL officials announced the “2 Ways to Hear” special offer. From now until December 31st, 2013, new patients who choose a MED-EL cochlear implant (CI) system will receive both the new RONDO and the OPUS 2 behind-the-ear processors. This limited-time offer allows new users of the MAESTRO Cochlear Implant System to enjoy the best of each audio processor: the freedom of nothing behind the ear with RONDO’s fully-integrated, cable-free design, and the modular design of the OPUS 2. 

“We want all of our CI recipients to experience the freedom of RONDO,” says MED-EL CEO Dr. Ingeborg Hochmair. “It’s a real revolution to wear a processor that doesn’t sit on the ear, has no cable, and is all-in-one. This special offer puts two outstanding audio processor designs in the hands of our customers.” 

MED-EL CI recipients can select the right processor for every situation: while playing sports, wearing glasses, or connecting with friends and family by telephone or assistive listening device (ALD). Both processors feature the same signature technologies for the best hearing in changing and challenging listening situations, all without the need to switch programs.
