Oticon CROS Family

Oticon CROS hearing aids are specially designed for people with single-sided deafness (SSD), helping them hear sound from their non-hearing side more clearly. Oticon, a global leader in hearing aid technology, is known for delivering superior sound quality, comfort, and intuitive connectivity features. With the CROS system, Oticon ensures that even individuals with hearing loss in one ear can enjoy a more natural listening experience.

Whether you’re struggling to follow conversations at dinner or missing out on sounds in noisy environments, Oticon CROS could be your solution. These devices provide wireless sound transmission from the poorer-hearing ear to the better-hearing ear, offering 360-degree hearing and spatial awareness.

Audiologist’s Point of View

Who Should Use Oticon CROS Family

Oticon CROS is ideal for individuals with single-sided deafness, where one ear has little or no usable hearing, and the other has normal or aidable hearing. It is perfect for:

Adults with sudden or progressive unilateral hearing loss
People who find it hard to follow conversations in noisy settings or group situations
Individuals seeking a wireless and discreet solution without surgery (unlike bone-anchored options)

An audiologist can evaluate your hearing and determine if CROS or BiCROS (for hearing loss in both ears) is the better fit.

Why choose a hearing aid center vs online provider?

Buying hearing aids isn’t just about the device — it’s about the care that comes with it.

Professional care from licensed hearing health care providers
Comprehensive audiological exam to evaluation your exact hearing needs
Hearing aids professionally programmed and fitted for your hearing
Ongoing support from licensed professionals who understand your unique hearing needs.

Online providers may offer convenience, but they can’t match the accuracy of in-person testing or the personalized service that helps you hear your best every day.

Find A Local Hearing Center

Interested in the Oticon CROS Family? Getting professionally fitted at a local hearing aid center ensures your devices are tailored to your unique hearing needs. An in-person fitting allows for precise adjustments, a comfortable fit, and expert guidance you can rely on over time. With a local audiologist, you’re not just getting hearing aids—you’re gaining ongoing support and care to help you hear your best every day. Pricing can vary by location depending on bundle options, and some practices may accept insurance or offer financing options.
