The clinical name for a bionic ear is a cochlear implant. This electronic device is surgically implanted to provide a sense of sound to individuals with severe to profound hearing loss. It bypasses damaged hair cells in the cochlea and directly stimulates the auditory nerve, allowing the brain to perceive sound.

What is the other namefor the bionic ear?

There is no such thing as a COMPLETELY bionic ear- sensory organs such as the eye, ear or nose cannot be entirely replaced by electronic apparatus, such technology can only be used to maximise and enhance that remains of the original organs. As to what such prosthetic technology is called scientifically, I think this varies from country to country, and also the exact nature of the devices fitted. There are a variety of differing electronic aids that are fitted to help deaf people, each one of which will be known by a different name. Your best bet is to Google 'bionic ear' and read through the articles that come up, to get some of the correct terminology you seek. The other name for a bionic ear is the 'cochlear implant'.
