After a year, we analyzed our data on newborn hearing screening if how compliant the parents are in bringing back their children for follow up check as needed. See the chart for 2023:
It shows very low compliance rate. It's even 0 for the 3rd test. So how are we going to identify early if the baby is indeed with hearing loss? It defeats the purpose of this republic act if parents do not submit their baby for the re-testing needed.
Ngaa kinahanglan maayo ang panan-aw sang kabataan? Kay wala na sila idea kung ang ila vision is normal o indi until matsek sila. So, ipakonsulta sa doktor sa mata ang imo bata para makasigurado nga okay ang iya vision.
We also do eye and ear screening every Wednesday at 08:00 A.M. We can check their vision. Bring them to our Vision and Hearing Center. We are located across Bacolod Diagnostic Center, very near the Riverside hospital. #magingMATAlino

Kung may mababago man dito, depende lang yan sa sitwasyon pero overall, ito talaga ang steps na sinusunod namin sa bawas vision and hearing screening. Sa Center man o sa Community. Kung sa palagay mo, may na-missed kang step, magtanong lang sa aming mga staff.
Sometimes worrying about tinnitus can make it more noticeable, so learning to relax can help provide relief. Slowing down the rate of breathing and relaxing your muscles are examples of simple relaxation exercises you can try.
Increasing the ambient noise can help you stop focusing on your tinnitus. Some people find playing background music or other regular sound can be beneficial.
Protect your hearing when you are in a particularly noisy environment. However, do not be tempted to wear earplugs away from these situations.
It is important to try to keep active and involved in your usual activities or hobbies as this can help to take your focus away from your tinnitus.
Obviously, being as healthy as possible is good for your general well being. If you find certain foods or drinks or activities seem to aggravate your tinnitus, consider reducing them. There are several therapies available now which have been shown to provide long-term and consistent relief from tinnitus. You should seek help from a tinnitus specialist who may be able to provide one of these therapies or help you choose a hearing device which can provide relief from tinnitus.
Found this old article of our collaboration with the Asian Eye Institute in providing eye services to its adopted communities. We are still Cataract Foundation then.
