Take a look at this video show amazing hearing technology:
This video showcases how the "tail" of a cochlear implant device (created by the Med-El company). T
he tail features diodes on its flexible extension, which allow sound to be transformed into electronic signals and transmitted to the brain for interpretation.
I personally use a CI from Med-El. I received my implant on 9/11/2015. I love my CI. Now, I can hear and understand complete complex sentences. I'm currently working on my music listening skills. I was almost completely deaf in my left ear and about 70% deaf in my right. I have a CI on my left and use a hearing aid on my right.

If you qualify for a CI, make sure to do your research and consult with specialists in the CI field about the different manufacturers, how they vary, and what benefits you can expect from the available devices.
