Long is a third grader from Cambodia. He has one younger sister. He likes to play tennis and study Khmer literature.
Long has ptosis in both eyes. Ptosis occurs when the eyelid droops over the eye. He has eye discomfort and pain.
Long traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On August 7, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will perform an eyelid correction procedure to improve his vision. Now, Long needs help to raise $292 to fund this procedure.
