We are living in a very noisy world today. With the establishment of all this industries, music systems in matatus, phones with loud music and the list is countless. It is the duty of every person to make sure they protect their ears, it is also the duty of factories and industries to provide precautionary measures for their staffs. They should also provide the necessary education on the level of noise in the company, how to protect themselves from the effect of noise induced hearing loss and the overall hearing health education. For those with hearing problems they are encouraged to seek the advice of an audiologist. Certain levels of hearing loss can be corrected while others a hearing aid can help to improve the level of hearing. Lower the volume of your phone, move away from noise, wear hearing protectors such as earplugs or earmuffs....this are some of the ways to protect your ears. From Helen Keller we realize how being deaf can turn out to be. Below is a quote from the famous Keller, '“Blindness separates people from things; deafness separates people from people.” ― Helen Keller
