Say hello to Khon! He is a 76-year-old from Cambodia, who has eight children and 20 grandchildren.
Khon was diagnosed with mature cataracts in both of his eyes, meaning that the natural lenses inside his eyes have become clouded. “His vision has been blurred for a year. This makes it hard for him to carry out daily tasks, and he cannot care for his family and home as he used to,” shares our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre.
Because of this condition, one of Khon’s daughters often looks after him, causing her to miss work and caring for her children. All Khon wants is his independence back, and for $150, we can provide that. “I traveled six hours from my village in the hopes that my vision can be improved,” says Khon.
Let’s work together to make sure he gets what he needs!
