Sros is a 23-year-old fruit seller. He has three sisters and four brothers, and is the youngest in his family. Both of his parents have died, and he now lives alone in town. Sros likes to play football when he has free time.
Two months ago, Sros had a traumatic injury to his left eye. Sros then developed a cataract, causing him loss of vision. His pupil is white, and he is embarrassed that his vision is limited.
When Sros learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled there hoping for treatment. On December 15th, doctors will perform a phacoemulsification cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in his left eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Now, he needs help to fund this $229 procedure.
“I hope after surgery I can see well again,” says Sros. “I would like to find a job to earn money and support myself better.”
