Prim is an 87-year-old father of four and grandfather of 12. In his free time, he likes to listen to the monks pray at the pagoda.
About one year ago, Prim developed a cataract in each eye, causing him to experience blurred vision and tearing. It is difficult for him to see things clearly, do any type of work, or walk anywhere by himself.
Prim heard about Watsi’s medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), from his relative. Accompanied by his brother, Prim traveled for three hours to reach CSC for an evaluation and treatment.
On May 25, Prim will undergo cataract surgery that will allow him to see clearly again. The $292 amount will cover the surgery, medications, and hospital costs.

Prim underwent successful cataract surgery.
His eye cataract was successfully removed from his right eye, and clear vision has been restored. Following the operation, he was given eye drops to reduce inflammation and prevent infection. He will return soon for the same surgery on his left eye.
Prim says, “I feel very happy that I can see everything very well again and it makes me feel comfortable. I can easily do any kind of work and go to the pagoda or anywhere else outside.”
