How much movement does the probe tip of the Carina Fully Implantable Hearing Device cause?
When activated by sound signals, the probe tip of the Carina Fully Implantable Hearing Device moves in an in-and-out motion to vibrate the ossicles. The vibrations are very small: approximately 1-2 micrometers. Even under a high power microscope, it is impossible to actually see the movement of the probe tip.
