What's your review of Cochlear Osia 2 System?
Hearing Loss | Last Active: Nov 19 4:22am | Replies (193)Comment receiving replies
I have bilateral otosclerosis and failed stapedectomy surgery. My nerve conduction is near normal. My ENT doctor is suggesting unilateral Osia 2 BC implant. My question is, since my hearing loss is bilateral, would it be appropriate to have bilateral bone conduction hearing aids implants. Thanks for any input you can provide.

Howdy. My doctor actually recommended doing one side first, and waiting a year or two before deciding on the second one.
I also have bilateral hearing loss, but so far, the single Osia 2 is enough for me.
Hi @thomashaus -- I'm not sure about your specific situation, but there is a woman on TikTok who has had Osia implants put on both sides of her head, so it is an option if your doctor thinks you're a good candidate. I found her videos when I was searching for info about the Osia. I found her by typing "Osia 2" into the TikTok search bar.

Hi @thomashaus, I moved your question to this existing discussion where members are talking about the Osia 2 system. I'm hoping fellow members like @edemmenegger @sam2678 @rjinla @julieo4 @nat2021 @lmayo @paulmonday @tinytoon31 may have some thoughts on your question about bilateral hearing loss and unilateral Osia 2 implant.
