Thol underwent eye surgery.
Thol’s surgery was successful! Her doctors removed the cataract in her right eye that was causing her to have blurry vision and making it difficult for her to go anywhere by herself. She can now see clearly and watch her favorite Khmer dramas on TV. Once she is fully healed, her quality of life will improve significantly.
“It is great to see that my mother is able to see everything clearly again. She can now also recognize the faces of all her children and grandchildren very well. I hope that we can now also travel somewhere,” Thol’s daughter shared.

Thol is a 64-year-old rice farmer from Cambodia. She has two sons, two daughters, and eight grandchildren. She likes to watch Khmer dramas on TV.
Six months ago, Thol developed a cataract in her right eye, causing her blurry vision, tearing, and inability to go anywhere outside on her own. She has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Thol learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, she traveled for three and a half hours seeking treatment. On April 23rd, doctors will perform a phacoemulsification cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in her right eye. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. Now, she needs help to fund this $229 procedure.
“I am anxious about my mother’s eye irritation, I hope that she can see everything better, so she can recognize her grandchildren well,” Thol’s daughter said.
