Audiologist’s Point of View

Who Should Use Phonak CROS Lumity

Audiologists recommend Phonak CROS Lumity for:

  • Patients with unilateral hearing loss
  • People who feel isolated or uncomfortable in social environments due to SSD
  • Users seeking minimal maintenance, streaming features, and rechargeable convenience

It is not suitable for people with bilateral hearing loss, as the CROS relies on one functioning ear to work effectively.

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.

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 Phonak CROS Lumity? 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.
