Yean is a 74-year-old rice farmer and grandfather from Cambodia. He enjoys listening to monks pray on the radio and reading books on Buddhism in his free time.
Yean has developed a cataract in both of his eyes and is unable to see clearly or go anywhere on his own. Yean traveled with his daughter for three hours to reach our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, for treatment.
On August 3, Yean will undergo a phacoemulsification cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant to remove his cataracts. The total cost of Yean’s medical bill is $398. Surgeons are confident that Yean will be able to see clearly again after his surgery.
