Baha implant: These are used for severe single sided deafness in many cases, thus you must have good hearing in one ear. They can also be used for conductive hearing loss of one ear. I don't know if your hearing loss is bilateral, but if it is, this aid would not help. For profound bilateral hearing loss, you either need conventional hearing aids or cochlear implants.
