What part do the bone in the middle ear play in the process of us hearing sound?
The "bone you are referring to is your hearing chain, so yes it affects your hearing. I know this because my daughter growing up had what is referred to as a cholesteatoma. A mass of skin that takes up residence behind the eardrum, that although is not cancerous acts like it is. It crawls and weaves around the hearing bone, It destroyed her ear drum and her hearing chain (bone). She now has a plastic (artificial) hearing bone but still only has 10% of her hearing in that ear. the only way to explain it is this... If you have a cup of water with a straw in it 6 inches from your mouth can the liquid get to your mouth? Same thing, the noise goes into your ear but stops where the straw ends thus filtering the sound. Any child that has more ear infections than what seams normal should be checked really well for this. My daughter had her first set of tubes when she was 14 months old. The cholesteatoma was missed by an ent when she was 10 even though here ear was bleading and oozing green stuff.

Open fit ear hearing aids are extremely small and nearly invisible to an observer. Essentially, open ear hearing aids are small units that sit up on top of and behind your ear. here is no earmold to occlude the ear canal when open fit hearing aids are worn - the clear tube is extremely thin and leaves the canal open. The biggest benefit to open fit digital hearing aids is that they minimize occlusion. Open ear hearing aids sit up high on your ear and are placed in the back of your ears. They do not block the ear canal, contrary to traditional hearing aids.
