Cochlear implanted subjects with bilateral, severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss, with at least one Oticon Medical cochlear implant system . Up to 40 subjects in this arm: 20 subjects will perform experiment 1 & 2 20 subjects will perform experiment 3 The subjects of the experiment 3 ore either those taken part to experiment 1 and 2, or subjects who only take port to the experiment 3

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Measurement of the pupil dilation response to a range of auditory stimuli (acoustic and electric).
Pupil dilation response for each intensity and frequency [Mean pupil dilatation in milimeters]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Evaluation of the loudness perception of the subjects regarding the different auditory stimuli (acoustic and electric) to correlate the results to the pupil dilation response.
Loudness score corresponding to each pupil dilation response. [Using Oticon Medical Loudness scale: scale from 0 to 10 following the ISO 16832. 0 (zero) corresponding to inaudible level and 10 to extremely loud (intolerable) sounds.]

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This trial is a monocentric, prospective and controlled study of the pupil response to detect hearing threshold and comfortable loudness of normal-hearing (NH) and CI-subjects.
Detailed Description
The purpose of the clinical investigation is to explore the pupil dilation response of subjects with a cochlear implant and to provide proof of concept that it is possible to perform the adaptation of a cochlear implant using pupillometry. The population of this study is divided in 2 group: A control group with normal-hearing listeners. An Cl group with subjects with bilateral, severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss, with at least one cochlear implant for more than 6 months. Mainly used in audiology to evaluate listening effort, pupillometry is an objective measure that could also be used for fittings. Studies have shown that sound intensity influence pupil dilation. indeed, normal hearing and hearing aids subjects exhibit larger pupil responses with increasing intensity/loudness. The purpose of this study is to explore the pupil dilation response of cochlear implant subjects and to provide a proof of concept that we can perform cochlear implant fitting using pupillometry. Implanted subjects (Cl group) will undergo up to 3 visits: Visit 1 or V1(inclusion) on day 1, Visit 2 or V2 (Experiment 1-+2+3 or Experiment 1+2 or Experiment 3 )* up to 1 month after V1 Visit 3 or V3 (Experiment 1+2 or Experiment 3, optional)* up to 1 month after V2 *lt is up to investigator decision to conduct experiment 1+2 and experiment 3 the same day or in on independent visit (no matter in which order) Normal-hearing listeners (control group) will undergo up to 2 visits: Visit 1 or Va (inclusion) on day 1, Visit 2 or V2 (experiment) up to 1 month after V1

Intervention Type
Other
Intervention Name(s)
Pupillometry (Eve-tracking measurements)
Intervention Description
Pupillometry measurements are carried out by a dedicated device (eye tracker), which includes cameras allowing the measurement of pupillary dilation. The subject stands in front of a screen and fixes a point in the center of the screen, the cameras placed on the screen allowing a measurement of the pupillary dilation in a non-invasive way. These eye-tracking measurements are performed simultaneously with an auditory task and allow to study the pupil's response to different stimuli.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Measurement of the pupil dilation response to a range of auditory stimuli (acoustic and electric).
Description
Pupil dilation response for each intensity and frequency [Mean pupil dilatation in milimeters]
Time Frame
At Visit 2 (Month 1)
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Evaluation of the loudness perception of the subjects regarding the different auditory stimuli (acoustic and electric) to correlate the results to the pupil dilation response.
Description
Loudness score corresponding to each pupil dilation response. [Using Oticon Medical Loudness scale: scale from 0 to 10 following the ISO 16832. 0 (zero) corresponding to inaudible level and 10 to extremely loud (intolerable) sounds.]
Time Frame
