Kem is a 66-year-old grandmother from Cambodia. She is married and has one daughter and two grandchildren. In her free time, she enjoys reading.
Two years ago, Kem developed a cataract in each eye, causing her blurred vision, tearing, and sensitivity to light. Kem has trouble seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and working on her own.
When Kem learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, she traveled for one hour to seek treatment. On March 29, doctors will perform a phacoemulsification cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in each eye. After recovery, Kem will be able to see clearly again. Now, she needs help to fund this $292 procedure.
