Bin is a 50-year-old retired solider from Cambodia. He has two sons, three daughters, and four grandchildren. He grows his own vegetables at home and sells some to the local market. He enjoys to listen to news on the radio.
One year ago, Bin developed a cataract in his right eye, causing him loss of vision. He has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Bin learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for seven hours seeking treatment. On April 22th, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in his right eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Now, he needs help to fund this $229 procedure.
“I hope that my father is able to see everything well, so he can continue his vegetable farming again.” Bin’s son said.
