Thona is a boy from Cambodia. He has one older brother. He likes to play with toy cars and drink soy milk. He wants to be a police officer when he grows up.
A year ago, Thona developed a cataract in his left eye, causing him blurry vision. He has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Thona learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for five hours seeking treatment. On November 7, doctors will perform a lensectomy and an intraocular lens implant in his left eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Now, he needs help to fund this $211 procedure.
His mother says, “I hope my son’s vision improves after the operation.”
