Lorn is a 62-year-old woman from Cambodia. She has two brothers and three sisters. In her free time, she enjoys visiting the pagoda and listening to monks pray.
Four months ago, she developed a cataract in each eye. This has caused her great difficulty in seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and doing any type of work. She traveled three hours with her sister to reach our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, for her treatment. She is scheduled to receive surgery on May 26 to improve her condition.
The $292 covers medication, hospital supplies, and physician costs for the treatment. The surgery involves placing a lens implant in each eye, allowing her to see clearly and become independent once again.

Her eye cataract was successfully removed from her left eye, and clear vision has been restored. Following the operation, she was given eye drops to reduce inflammation and prevent infection. She will return soon for the same surgery on her right eye.
