Healy has joined Daryl Murphy in joining former Black Cats boss Roy Keane at the Tractor Boys before Monday's deadline.
Both strikers have joined the Championship club on loan until the end of the season.
Healy has found himself out on the cold at the Stadium of Light since Keane left in December 2008.
The 30-year-old is Northern Ireland's all-time leading scorer with 35 goals in just international 78 appearances.
