Meet Seng, a 67-year-old woman from Cambodia. Seng is married with two sons, four daughters, and 15 grandchildren. She enjoys visiting the pagoda to listen to the monks pray, according to our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC).
“Seng developed a cataract in each eye 1 year ago. This causes her blurred vision, tearing, and she is afraid of sunshine. She can’t see everything clearly, go outside on her own, or do her work well,” explains CSC.
$225 funds cataract surgery that will remove the cloudy lenses from both of her eyes and replace them with artificial lenses. Funding for her surgery includes post-operative care, and after the surgery, she will be able to see clearly again.

Seng received successful cataract surgery.
Seng can see clearly again for the first time in one year. With restored vision, she looks forward to doing her day-to-day work more comfortably, and going outdoors by herself.
