Since both of my parents are hearing -impaired and their hearing aids seem to be trouble than they're worth, can you tell me how I can learn more about this procedure? Jim Tomasewski, Bay Village, and several other readers.

A The procedure is called a Cochlear implant, in which an electrode is placed in the inner ear, stimulating the auditory nerve. Your ear specialist should be able to tell you about it. Have a question? Write Glad You Asked, The Plain Dealer. 1801 Superior Cleveland, 44114. 4t.
