Respa is an elderly lady from Kenya. She is a mother of nine children. Respa lives with one of her sons. She loves cooking.
Some time ago, Respa developed a cataract in her left eye. A cataract occurs when the lens of the eye becomes opaque, blurring vision. She can no longer cook, which is her favorite activity.
Fortunately, Respa is scheduled to undergo cataract surgery at our medical partner’s care center. Surgeons will remove and replace the blurred lens. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. Now, she needs help to fund this $220 procedure.
Respa says, “I want to have clear vision and be able to lead a normal life. I want to see my way around.”

Respa underwent cataract surgery.
Repsa was successfully treated in our medical partner’s facility. She had a cataract with retinal degeneration and a dislocated lens, which the surgeon was able to fix. Her vision improved, but it’s still limited due to retinal degeneration. Respa was glad to have the treatment.
Respa says, “I am grateful for the surgery done. I hope that soon with total recovery I will be able to perceive vision with better clarity.”
