Rathanak is a four-year-old boy from Cambodia. He has three older brothers, and he likes to play games and draw pictures.
Rathanak was born with ptosis in his left eye, which causes his eyelid to droop. When his parents learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), they traveled for three hours to seek treatment. On November 1, CSC surgeons performed an eyelid correction procedure.
