Men is a seven-year-old kindergarten student from Cambodia. She has one brother and is the oldest child in the family. She loves to play with toys and paint.
Since she was born, Men has had esotropia in both eyes. This causes her eyes to slant inward, giving her blurred vision and a “cross-eyed” appearance.
For $264, Men will undergo a squint correction surgery to realign her eyes and improve her vision.
Men’s mother says, “I hope my daughter’s eye is straight so that she is not shy around others when she goes to school.”
