Guest guest Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Hi , Do you drive a lot? If so, then the right ear would be a good choice, since it's to the inside of the car, and you can hear the passengers. If you are a passenger more often than a driver, then the left ear would be the choice for the same reason - implant toward the center of the car where the music is from the radio, and the conversation is. I'm primary driver and implanted on the left, so I have to use the long cord and put the processor over the right ear if I'm driving with passengers. And when I roll the windows down in the spring. The Original From: " " <suzimq@...> Subject: Which Ear? Ok, I'm probably jumping ahead a little bit but I'm curious about how people chose what ear to be implanted. I have no hearing in either ear now, both ears had " normal " hearing until 5 months ago (deaf overnight). If the doctor feels one ear would be better to implant medically I'd go with that one, but if not how do you decide? I'm right handed so I'm thinking maybe my left ear to give that side more work to do!! Any suggestions? Thanks! (San Deigo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
