Donate for Ammar’s Cataract Surgery

Muhammad Ammar's Story

Muhammad Ammar is a one year toddler whose family hails from Multan. But that’s not the most significant fact that you need to know about Ammar. In fact, it is Ammar’s cataracts in both eyes that need your utmost attention right now. You see, Ammar’s vision is deteriorating fast because of cataracts. Ammar is suffering from a congenital condition called Bilateral Aphakia, a serious ocular disorder in which the lens of the eye is missing by birth. Ammar’s doctors have advised him to undergo a surgical procedure called vitrectomy. The objective of this surgical procedure is to treat problems with a patient’s ocular deformity. Not only that, the doctor has advised Ammar to get an IOL as well. This stands for the intraocular lens, a procedure in which an artificial lens is implanted in place of a natural lens. Therefore, we request you to donate for Ammar’s Cataract Surgery.

Perfect treatments exist for Ammar’s eye problems, so what’s the hurdle here? The answer is his family’s financial condition. You see, Ammar’s father is a daily wager, all he makes by stitching clothes every day amounts to 20,000 PKR per month. In this meagre amount, he has to manage a family of four. He says:

“As if the pandemic was not bad enough for the business, now I have to face another struggle. But this time, it is more than just affording an expense. It is my son’s vision at risk. I have to do everything that I can to save his eyesight. And one of the things that I can do right now is to pray for a miracle”
