The Invisible Hearing Solution
The Phonak Lyric represents a revolutionary approach to hearing technology – a 100% invisible hearing aid that delivers exceptional sound quality without anyone knowing you're wearing it. Comparable to how contact lenses improve vision without changing appearance, Lyric offers a discreet way to correct hearing loss without announcing it to the world.
At California Hearing Center, we're proud to be a certified Lyric provider, offering this unique hearing solution that can be worn 24/7 for months at a time. Our specially trained audiologists will ensure your Lyric is comfortably placed and precisely tuned to your individual hearing needs.
