Piseth is an eight-year-old student, with one sister and one brother. His best subject in school is reading, and in his free time he enjoys playing football with his friends.
Two months ago, Piseth developed a chalazion, or an inflamed cyst in the tear gland, in his left eye. The chalazion causes him pain, itchiness, and irritation, and it is difficult for him to see clearly and read in school.
Piseth traveled with his father to seek treatment from our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre. On May 20th, surgeons will remove the cyst through a chalazion excision procedure. After recovery, Piseth’s symptoms should improve. Now, his family needs help raising $187 to fund this procedure.
Piseth shared, “I hope my eye gets better so I can study easier at school and play with my friends.”

Piseth underwent chalazion eye treatment so he can participate and read better in school.
Piseth had a successful excision of the inflamed cyst in his eye. He will apply eye drops four times a day to aid in healing, but the irritation and itching have already subsided, much to his happiness. Piseth’s eye feels much better and he can go to school with more confidence. He looks forward to reading well again and playing with his friends.
His mother is glad for Piseth to return to a normal life chalazion-free: “I am happy my son no longer has the cyst on his eyelid, the swelling has gone down and he is happy to return to school.”
