How does a cochlear implant work?

Cochlear implants are designed for children & adults with sensori neural hearing loss. This kind of hearing loss typically includes damage to tiny hair cells in the part of the inner ear called the cochlea. These hair cells pick up the vibrations of sounds &send them to the brain through the auditory nerve. When they are damaged, sound cannot reach the auditory nerve. A cochlear implant bypasses the damaged hair cells & sends signals to the hearing nerve directly.
