Ouch is a rice farmer from Cambodia. She has one son and two grandchildren. She likes to watch boxing matches, read about Buddha, and spend time with her grandkids.
One year ago, Ouch developed a cataract in each eye, causing her blurry vision, tearing, photophobia, and itching. She has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Ouch learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, she traveled for two hours seeking treatment. On June 13, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in each eye. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. Now, she needs help to fund this $398 procedure.
She says, “I hope I can see everything clearly after surgery so I can read and learn more about Buddha.”
