Hear the world again. Advanced hearing restoration surgery in Nagpur

When hearing loss no longer responds to medication or hearing aids, surgery can often restore what’s been lost. Dr. Sweta Lohiya — fellowship-trained in otology and cochlear implantation under Padmashree Dr. M. V. Kirtane — performs cochlear implants, middle ear implants, stapedectomy, and eardrum reconstruction at Kingsway Hospitals, Nagpur.

Cochlear Implants

For severe to profound hearing loss where hearing aids no longer help. The implant bypasses the damaged inner ear to stimulate the hearing nerve directly.

Middle Ear Implants

Implantable hearing devices for patients who cannot use or do not benefit from conventional hearing aids.

Stapedectomy

Surgery for otosclerosis, where a fixed middle-ear bone prevents sound conduction. The affected bone is replaced with a tiny prosthesis to restore hearing.

Tympanoplasty & Mastoidectomy

Reconstruction of a perforated eardrum and surgical treatment of chronic middle-ear disease — repairing damage and protecting remaining hearing.

FELLOWSHIP-TRAINED IN OTOLOGY & COCHLEAR IMPLANTS

Delicate surgery guided by specialised ear training

Ear surgery is among the most precise work in ENT — operating on structures measured in millimetres. Dr. Sweta Lohiya completed a dedicated fellowship in otology and cochlear implantation under Padmashree Dr. M. V. Kirtane, one of India’s most respected ear surgeons. With 14+ years of ENT experience, she assesses each patient thoroughly — including detailed hearing evaluation — before recommending whether surgery, an implant, or a non-surgical option is genuinely the right path.

Frequently asked questions

Hearing restoration surgery refers to procedures that repair or bypass damaged parts of the ear to improve hearing. This includes eardrum reconstruction, replacement of fixed middle-ear bones, and implantable devices such as cochlear and middle ear implants.

A cochlear implant is a surgically placed device for people with severe to profound hearing loss who get little benefit from hearing aids. It bypasses the damaged part of the inner ear and stimulates the hearing nerve directly.

Cochlear implants are considered for adults and children with severe to profound hearing loss when hearing aids no longer provide adequate benefit. Suitability is confirmed through hearing tests, imaging, and specialist assessment.

No. A hearing aid amplifies sound for a damaged but working ear. A cochlear implant bypasses the damaged part of the ear entirely and stimulates the hearing nerve — used when amplification is no longer enough.

Stapedectomy is surgery for otosclerosis, a condition where a small middle-ear bone (the stapes) becomes fixed and cannot transmit sound. The bone is replaced with a tiny prosthesis to restore sound conduction.

Tympanoplasty is surgery to repair a perforated eardrum. It helps improve hearing and reduces the risk of repeated ear infections.

It depends on the cause. Conductive hearing loss from a perforated eardrum or fixed bone can often be improved surgically. Sensorineural hearing loss cannot be reversed, but implants can restore useful hearing in suitable cases.

Yes. Children with severe to profound hearing loss may be candidates, and earlier intervention generally supports better speech and language development. Assessment involves both ENT and audiology evaluation.

A hearing assessment includes an ear examination, detailed hearing tests, and imaging where needed. This determines the type and degree of hearing loss and which treatments — surgical or non-surgical — are appropriate for you.

Outcomes vary between patients depending on the cause and duration of hearing loss. Your surgeon will explain realistic expectations for your specific case during consultation.
