Abstract

A hearing device such as a receiver-in-ear assembly. The assembly includes a housing having a cavity extending through the housing; an optical transducer mounted in the cavity within a thickness of the housing, the optical transducer being mounted on a circuit board layer such that a spacing exists between a side of the optical transducer and a sidewall of the cavity. The circuit board layer extends underneath the housing and touching the housing such that the optical transducer is held within the cavity without touching the housing. The assembly further includes a protective substance forming a shield over the optical transducer and the cavity, the protective substance configured to affect a field of view of the optical transducer.
