Saron is a 55-year-old mother. She is married and has one daughter. Her husband is a farmer and her daughter is a garment worker. Saron likes to listen to the news on the radio and watch movies on TV.
Three years ago, Saron developed a cataract in her right eye, causing her blurry vision, photophobia, and tearing. As a result, she has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Saron learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), she traveled for two hours seeking treatment. On October 26th, doctors will perform cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in her right eye. After recovery, Saron will be able to see clearly again. CSC is requesting $229 to help fund this procedure.
Saron shared, “I hope my eye can see clearly after surgery so I can help my husband on the rice field and do my housework well.”
