There is a very expensive option available called Cochlear Implant. However, the sound perceived will be very basic! As you are able to hear from one ear, I would advise you against that option. Another option is to opt for Bone Anchored Hearing Aid which will conduct sounds from the dead Left side through the skull bones to the Right Ear's cochlea. This may be the best option for you.
