Sok Khon is a farmer from Cambodia. She has two daugthers and seven grandchildren. She likes to visit her local pagoda in her free time.
Two years ago, Sok Khon developed a cataract in her right eye, causing her blurry vision, clouded lens, and photophobia. She has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Sok Khon learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, she traveled for four hours seeking treatment. On July 10, doctors will perform a small incision 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 $211 procedure.
She says, “I want to go the local pagoda and take care of my grandchildren.”
