Sak is a 66-year-old rice farmer from Cambodia. She has seven children, twenty grandchildren, and enjoys listening to the monks pray on the radio in her free time.
Four years ago, Sak developed entropion of the eyelids. This means that her eyelids are positioned inwards. causing her eyelashes to scratch against her eyes creating tearing and irritation.
Sak traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On July 3, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will perform a corrective procedure to repair her eyelids. Now, Sak needs help to raise $212 to fund this procedure.
She says, “I hope that after my operation, I will be able to see clearly and will no longer have any irritation or tearing in my eyes.”
