Kimleng is a five-year-old boy from Cambodia. He is the oldest of two siblings, and likes to play with his toy cars and drink cola-cola.
Kimleng has strabismus in both eyes. Strabismus is a misalignment of the eye caused by injury or dysfunction in the associated nerves and muscles. It is difficult for him to see straight or see anything clearly.
Kimleng traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On March 13, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will perform a corrective procedure to align his eyes. Now, Kimleng needs help to raise $292 to fund this procedure.
His mother says, “I hope that the surgery will help my son to see straight and more clearly, and also look better than before.”

Kimleng underwent eye surgery.
Kimleng’s operation went smoothly and he has returned home. His eye is a little bit swollen after surgery, but he’s been given drops to reduce inflammation and prevent infection. Following surgery, Kimleng’s eye position has been corrected, improving his vision and confidence.
His mother says, “I am so happy that my son’s surgery was a success. Now, I don’t have to worry about him as much as he is able to see more clearly and is not as shy around his friends.”
