Earlens Hearing Aids
Established in 2005 by world-renowned Dr. Rodney Perkins, who hoped to transform the hearing experience for millions of people experiencing a hearing loss, Earlens was designed to specifically address the challenges of poor sound quality and speech understanding that caused the most frustration among hearing aid wearers.
FDA clearance was given to Earlens in 2019 in order to produce a second generation of Earlens technology, which provides their users with better hearing solutions that allow them to enjoy a more rewarding and independent lifestyle without worrying about their hearing aids.

Earlens’ Sound Processing
Similar to contact lenses for your eyes, each Earlens Contact Hearing Solution involves the nonsurgical insertion of a tiny lens next to your eardrum, stimulating the natural hearing process by vibrating the eardrum directly.

- Up to 2.5x greater range of frequencies than traditional hearing aids for improved sound quality and speech understanding, especially in environments with background noise
- Custom-formed to the unique contours of each ear
- Custom programmed to address your specific hearing needs
- Eliminates acoustic feedback (whistling, distortion)
- Fully rechargeable, eliminating the need to worry over batteries
- Streaming for iPhone and connectivity with Bluetooth devices
Users are able to personalize additional settings to accommodate different listening environments and make easy adjustments by using the Earlens app and iPhone connectivity features.
