Khorn is a 65-year-old rice farmer from Cambodia. She has two sons, two daughters, and four grandchildren. Her favorite activity is to visit the local pagoda with her friends.
Two years ago, Khorn developed entropion of the eyelids. This means that her eyelids are always drooping and turned inwards. It is difficult for her to see clearly and she experiences constant irritation.
Khorn traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On March 10th, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will perform a corrective procedure to repair her eyelids. Now, Khorn needs help to raise $225 to fund this procedure.
She said, “I hope that the irritation, tearing, and burning in my eyes will stop and I can help around the house again.”

Khorn underwent entropion eye treatment.
Khorn’s operation went smoothly and her eyelid has been lifted. She spent one night in the hospital before returning home. Her eye was a little swollen following the procedure, but she has been given eye drops to use several times throughout the day to reduce inflammation and prevent infection.
Khorn’s surgery has improved her vision and her confidence. Her daughter is so happy that her mother’s eyelid have been corrected and that she no longer has any difficultly opening her eyes and seeing everything clearly.
“I am so happy that I can open my eyelids and my eyes can see clearly. I am feeling so much more comfortable than before,” Khorn shared.
