It is very nice for your concern for your parents.
Cochlear implant is for those who are unable to hear even with the the most powerful hearing aid.
Or if the patient wants it !
It would cost about 10 lakhs for the surgery!
Instead try for a good pair of hearing aids after getting a hearing test done!
Next Steps
