00:00One of the most troublesome and complicated parts of our body is our eyes.
00:09That's why experts advise to have your eyes examined immediately if you are experiencing problems with your vision.
00:17That is the answer of the Kapuso 2020 Eye Project of the GMA Kapuso Foundation.
00:25When he doesn't go to school, he spends the whole day staring at his cell phone.
00:34His eyes are almost touching the screen of his cell phone while playing games.
00:40That's why his eyes become blurry.
00:44When I look to the left, my eyes hurt and I cry.
00:49I always tell him to put his cell phone away from his eyes because it can damage his eyes.
00:55I always tell him to rest his eyes.
01:01His driver said that his eyes are not enough to pay Php 600 per day for his check-up.
01:09Most of the time, Grace's eyes become blurry.
01:13That's why it's hard for her to see.
01:15She just keeps staring at the screen of her cell phone.
01:20Sometimes, I can't see when I'm scratching.
01:23Sometimes, I can't see when I'm scratching.
01:25Sometimes, I can't see when I'm scratching.
01:29Every year, the GMA Kapuso Foundation organizes the sight-saving month every August
01:37as part of the Kapuso 2020 Eye Project.
01:40As part of my daily routine,
01:45we provide free eye check-up and free eye examination to 131 beneficiaries
01:52through the Ideal Vision Center.
01:55There is also a lecture on proper eye care
01:59by the ophthalmologist and cornea specialist, Dr. Tonton Pascual.
02:04After 20 minutes of use of your eyes,
02:07close your eyes for 20 seconds or look far for 20 seconds at 20 feet
02:12so that your eyes get to rest.
02:14Don't face the electric fan or air conditioner when you're doing something
02:19because your eyes will really dry up.
02:21Sometimes, they don't prioritize making glasses.
02:27That's why the GMA Kapuso Foundation has this project.
02:31We also have a raffle for appliances, food, and giveaways.
02:38Happy birthday, GMA Kapuso!
02:42Thank you very much.
02:48Some Negros Occidental are still celebrating the eruption of the volcano Canlaon last June.
02:56Not only in terms of life, but also in terms of health.
03:00The caravan of the GMA Kapuso Foundation has already set off.
03:08Last June, the volcano Lahar erupted on this road
03:12in Barangay Biakna Bato in the town of La Castellana in Negros Occidental
03:17after the volcano Canlaon erupted.
03:23Due to the strong smell of ash and lava,
03:26the health of the residents was severely affected.
03:30This is what the barangay health worker, Mary Grace, said.
03:34They panicked because they experienced the eruption of Lahar.
03:40Some of them got sick.
03:42When they went to the evacuation center, they had a fever.
03:45Even her grandchildren got sick and had a fever.
03:49But because many people in their barangay got sick,
03:52she stayed in the health center to help.
03:58The livelihood of some residents also stopped.
04:02The people here are really bad.
04:05They don't have a shop anymore.
04:08Their plants and plants are all dead.
04:17The GMA Kapuso Foundation was immediately divided into three municipalities
04:23affected by the eruption of the volcano.
04:29And in our tour of La Castellana,
04:32we saw their need for medical services.
04:36That's why the GMA Kapuso Foundation immediately moved
04:40to one of the Kalusugan Caravans
04:43for those affected by the eruption of the volcano.
04:47Watch out for the continuation of our Kalusugan Caravan.
04:58Every month of August, whether I like it or not,
05:01I celebrate my birthday.
05:04It's my tradition to give gifts to those in need.
05:09That's why the GMA Kapuso Foundation
05:12provides medical services to more than 1,000 residents
05:16affected by the eruption of the volcano in Negros Occidental.
05:24The residents of La Castellana, Negros Occidental were alarmed
05:29by the sudden eruption of the volcano in Uncunio.
05:35And because of the continuous rain,
05:37it followed the eruption of the volcano,
05:40which is harmful to their livelihoods,
05:43affected and their health.
05:46Many of us here are sick with asthma.
05:50After the visit of the GMA Kapuso Foundation
05:53in Barangay Biak na Bato in La Castellana,
05:56five more families remain in the evacuation center.
06:00And on the occasion of my birthday,
06:03I would like to provide medical services
06:06to the residents affected by the eruption of the volcano
06:09under the Kalusugan Caravan Project.
06:13With the help of our partners, volunteers, and sponsors,
06:17we were able to provide free medical consultation
06:20and laboratory tests to more than 1,000 residents.
06:25There is also breast screening using a high-tech portable device
06:30to detect if a woman has breast cancer.
06:34We have breast cancer.
06:36Because if you detect breast cancer early,
06:40there is a higher chance that you will survive.
06:44And it is very important for mothers at home,
06:48because you are the light.
06:50So it's important that we detect breast cancer early.
06:55We also provided medicines.
06:57Due to the sulphuric ashes,
06:59there is usually a cough and a cough.
07:01Diarrhea usually changes the way they drink water.
07:06It's painful.
07:07They also change the location and the supply of water.
07:10So it's painful there.
07:12And we also fed them.
07:13And there was a free haircut.
07:16Happy birthday, GMA!
