Chan is a 50-year-old rice and crop farmer from Cambodia. In her free time, she likes to watch Khmer dramas and do housework.
About three years ago, Chan developed a pterygium, a pink tissue growth, in both eyes. Due to her condition, she experiences blurred vision, irritation, and tearing. It is difficult for her to work or go anywhere outside by herself.
Seeking treatment through our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), Chan is scheduled to undergo eye surgery to remove the pterygium on July 18. CSC is requesting $201 to cover the total cost of her procedure and care.
After her recovery, Chan’s vision should be restored, allowing her to resume her daily activities comfortably again.
