Theara is a bright 3rd grade student. He has two older sisters and his parents are garment workers in a factory. Theara loves to play football with his friends.
Three years ago, the retina of Theara’s left eye detached, causing him partial blindness and tearing.
When Theara’s family learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for one and a half hours seeking treatment. On November 23rd, eye surgeons will perform a retinal detachment repair procedure in his left eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Now, our medical partner needs help to fund this $648 procedure.
Theara’s mother says, “I hope his eye can heal so he can see clearly again.”

Theara underwent retinal detachment repair surgery so he can see clearly.
Theara underwent his surgery and all went well. He will need to be still for several days to allow his eye to heal properly at the hospital, then return to his province with his parents. He will have a chance at a more full life after this surgery and is hopeful he can return to school and grow up like other children.
Theara’s mother said: “I was very worried that my son cannot see; other children made fun of his eye. Now he has a chance to see better than before. Thank you to all who helped him to have this operation so he can have a good life now.”
