Mary is a 65-year-old woman from Kenya. She lives with her daughter-in-law and supports herself by working on local farms.
Since December of last year, Mary’s eyesight has been rapidly deteriorating. She received eye drops from a local clinic, but was unable to administer them properly.
Seeking an evaluation and treatment, Mary visited our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, where she was diagnosed with a cataract in her right eye.
Mary is scheduled to undergo cataract surgery on June 19, and is very excited to regain her vision. She is asking for $220 to cover the total cost of her procedure.
“I wish to be treated so that I can see clearly,” says Mary.
