An is a rice farmer from Cambodia. She has two sons and four grandchildren. She likes to read and listen to radio programs.
A year ago, An developed a cataract in each eye, causing her clouded lenses and blurry vision. She has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When An learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, she traveled for four hours seeking treatment. On January 3, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in each eye. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. Now, she needs help to fund this $398 procedure.
She says, "I hope my vision improves so I can return to work."
