The Oticon 10 mm Open Domes are small, soft, and flexible silicone tips that attach to the receiver of your Oticon RITE hearing aid. They are designed to sit comfortably in the ear canal, providing a secure fit while allowing natural sounds to enter the ear alongside amplified sound. This "open" design helps to reduce the occlusion effect (the sensation of your own voice sounding hollow or boomy).

Each pack contains 10 individual 10 mm Open Domes, ensuring you have a supply for regular replacements.
