Designed for living

Discreet Style – Oticon Zeal is the first hearing aid to have the convenience of an in-the-ear fitting, without compromising on connectivity or rechargeability.
Connectivity – Using the same low energy bluetooth technology as other Oticon models, the Zeal allows you to stream media and phone calls directly to your hearing aids.
Oticon Companion App – If you like to have control over your hearing aids the Oticon Zeal allows control over volume and tone, as well as having the option to switch between multiple settings for different environments (if set up by your audiologist)

Speech clarity you can rely on

MoreSound Intelligence 3.0 – Oticon Zeal works constantly to classify your environment, updating 300 times per second to make sure that it is always prioritising the sound you want to hear and helping to suppress background noise.
SuddenSound Stabiliser – With premium technology these hearing aids can help mute sudden, loud sounds (for example pots and pans, or doors banging) to keep you hearing comfortably and preven overamplification.
Soft Speech Booster – In quiet environments Oticon Zeal will provide an additional boost to very quiet voices, helping to improve speech understanding by up to 20% so that you have a better chance of hearing first time.
Spatial Sound – Oticon’s clever technology is constantly working to make sure it preserves the difference in sound between your 2 ears, meaning that you can better detect the direction of sounds and helping you to hear better in background noise.

Our care

At Zest Hearing Care you can be sure that whichever hearing aid you choose it will be expertly fitted and fine-tuned by our audiologists for your individual hearing profile to make sure that it is providing you with the very best possible outcomes.

We use Real Ear Measurements – a process that measures how the aid is actually performing inside your ear – to make sure the sound reaching you is set at exactly the right level and after your initial fitting we continue to adjust and refine your aids at follow-up appointments until you are hearing as clearly and comfortably as possible. There are no limits to how often you can see us and we will keep working with you until you are happy with the results.

For a long time, getting a discreet hearing aid meant making compromises. You could have something small and nearly invisible, but you’d give up Bluetooth connectivity, rechargeable batteries, or the sound quality you really wanted. The Oticon Zeal changes that and is the first hearing aid that combines an almost invisible design with built-in Bluetooth, a rechargeable battery, and Oticon’s advanced sound processing – all in one discrete device.

A hearing aid you won’t need to explain

The Zeal sits in the ear canal, where it is largely hidden from view so that people around you simply won’t notice it. If the thought of a visible hearing aid has been putting you off, or if you’ve assumed that invisible aids meant settling for basic technology, the Zeal is worth exploring.

Sound quality that doesn’t compromise for size

Oticon has long been known for hearing aids that support the way your brain naturally processes sound, and the Oticon Zeal carries that same approach. It uses a deep neural network (a type of AI processing trained on millions of real-world sounds) to separate speech from background noise rather than simply making everything louder. The result is clearer, easier conversation, whether you’re at a family gathering, in a restaurant, or anywhere else life takes you.

Bluetooth and rechargeability in a hearing aid this small

Most nearly invisible hearing aids require you to choose between technology and discretion. The Zeal doesn’t ask you to choose, it connects directly to your iPhone or Android device so that you can stream calls and audio without any additional accessories. And because it is rechargeable, there are no small batteries to change, simply place it in the charger overnight and it will be ready for the day ahead.

Fitted precisely for you, at Zest Hearing Care

Getting the most from a hearing aid as capable as the Zeal means making sure it is set up precisely for your hearing. At Zest Hearing Care in Daventry, every fitting includes Real Ear Measurements – a process that checks the sound actually reaching your eardrum while the aid is in your ear, and adjusts it to exactly the right level for you. There are no limits on follow-up appointments either, so we will keep working with you until you are fully happy with how you hear.

While the decision of whether to get hearing aids now or later is up to you people who get hearing aids sooner tend to be happier with them and have fewer problems adjusting to them. Hearing aids can also help to slow the rate of cognitive decline, reduce fatigue and improve mental health amongst many other benefits!

Wearing hearing aids will not make your ears lazy, however when you take them out you may notice that your hearing feels worse than it did before you got your hearing aids. This is because you will be much more aware of how much better you can hear while wearing them, and how hard you are having to work when they are not in.

Your audiologist can give you a definite answer to this question when you come in for your Detailed Hearing Assessment, but if you have a hearing loss in both ears it is almost always best to wear two hearing aids as this will help your brain focus better in noisy situations.

Ultimately the decision of when to wear your hearing aids is yours, however we normally recommend that you wear your hearing aids as much as possible. This will make sure that you receive the maximum benefit from them as well as helping them to sound more natural since your brain will have adjusted to their sound.

No. In the UK the cost of private hearing aids varies from one company to another because the cost reflects not only the hearing aids themselves, but also the hearing care that goes with them. Even the very best hearing aid technology will not provide the desired results if they are not approptiately set up and maintained.

At Zest Hearing Care we make sure that we have the expertise, equipment and time to make sure that your hearing aids are not just “off the shelf” but are truly customised for your ears. This makes sure that you are getting the very best outcomes for your budget.
