Smiling 82-year-old Sroeng is from Cambodia. A year ago she started loosing her vision and our medical partner says she is now, “completely blind due to the cataracts in both of her eyes”.
Sroeng and her son traveled four hours to reach our partner hospital, hoping to get funding for a treatment they could not otherwise afford. Because of her loss of sight, Sroeng relies on her son to help her move around and guide her, restricting her autonomy. Getting her sight back will make a big difference in her life.
$100 will cover what is called a small incision cataract surgery, or SICS, and fully restore her eyesight. Your donation towards this operation will make her autonomous again, and able to take care of herself and her family!
