“Loss of hearing affects one’s ability to communicate with the world. Most importantly, how it affects differs from one person to another. Providing personalized hearing solutions is one aspect that was overlooked in Sri Lanka for many years. Therefore, NETHRALOKANA SATHKARA strives to change this and change lives for the better.
As per the request by Dr. Selvarathnam (Consultant ENT Head & Neck Surgeon) Vision Care Hearing Solutions has contentedly donated a “Newborn Hearing Screening Unit” to Teaching Hospital Kandy.
