Extended-Wear Design
Lyric is worn deep in the ear canal and managed through in-office care rather than daily handling.
Phonak Lyric
Invisible extended-wear hearing aids
Phonak Lyric is an extended-wear hearing aid placed deep in the ear canal by a trained professional. It is designed to remain out of sight and can be worn continuously for long periods between office visits.
Lyric is not appropriate for every ear canal or every hearing loss. A consultation is needed to check anatomy, hearing needs, medical considerations, and comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sleep with Lyric hearing aids?
Lyric is designed for extended wear, including many normal daily activities. Your audiologist will review care instructions and limitations during candidacy evaluation.
Is Lyric visible?
Lyric is placed deeply in the ear canal and is designed to be highly discreet, but fit and visibility vary by anatomy.
Can I shower or swim with Lyric?
Phonak says you can wear Lyric in the shower. It is water resistant, not waterproof, so Phonak does not recommend underwater swimming or diving.
Can I have an MRI with Lyric?
Phonak says Lyric must be removed before an MRI because it contains metal parts. Tell your care team that you wear Lyric before any scan.
How long does a Lyric device last?
Phonak says each device lasts for months at a time. How long depends on your ear, your hearing loss and your noise environment. Phonak sells Lyric as a subscription through authorized providers.
