Oticon Cros™
A revolutionary 360° sound experience for single-sided deafness
Imagine sitting in an important meeting and not being able to pinpoint who is talking. Or having to choose between hearing the TV at a party for a sporting event versus talking with other guests. If you have single-sided deafness, a condition where there is significant or total hearing loss in one ear, you face challenges like these every day. Introducing Oticon CROS™, a solution designed specifically to help you overcome challenges like these.
The Oticon CROS™ solution consists of two parts:
A transmitter with a microphone that wirelessly picks up and sends the sound from your poorer ear to the better ear.
A hearing aid that picks up the sound from the transmitter and plays it in your better ear.
Oticon CROS™ is available in a range of colors and styles to match your hair or skin tone.

Oticon CROS™ is the only solution on the market that gives you 360° access to sound, thanks to its revolutionary feature – OpenSound Navigator™.

Freedom to do more
Streamed sounds are a natural part of our lives, with or without hearing loss. But it can be very challenging to directly stream sound and carry on a conversation if you have hearing loss in one ear. Oticon CROS™ is the world’s first CROS™ solution that makes it possible to do both.
TwinLink™ technology makes it possible to connect to external audio streams while simultaneously having access to sound on your poorer ear side. With Oticon CROS™ you will be able to watch television or listen to music while at the same time carrying on a conversation with someone positioned on your poorer side.
