Chanthou is a 60-year-old merchant from Cambodia. She is married and has three sons, two daughters, and 20 grandchildren. When not working, Chanthou likes to watch Thai and Khmer dramas on TV.
About four months ago, Chanthou developed cataracts in both of her eyes, causing her blurred vision, tearing, and sensitivity to light. Chanthou’s condition has made it difficult for her to work and be independent. Hearing about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), from a neighbor, she decided to seek treatment.
