Nusrat Bibi Can See Clearly Now

Nusrat Bibi's Story

Nusrat Bibi, a 43-year-old woman from Hyderabad, had been suffering from blurry vision in her right eye for the past three months. Her condition made it increasingly difficult for her to manage household chores and care for her three children. Each day became a challenge as her vision continued to deteriorate. Concerned about her worsening condition, she finally visited an eye specialist at a local hospital. After conducting some medical tests, the doctor diagnosed her with a cataract in her right eye. To restore her sight, the doctor advised Phacoemulsification (Phaco) with Intraocular Lens (IOL) implantation. However, the cost of the surgery was more than what Nusrat’s family could manage.

Nusrat’s husband, a daily wage laborer, earns just PKR 20,000 a month. Out of this limited income, they pay PKR 5000 for house rent and must cover the cost of food, utility bills, and the school expenses of their two school-going children. These necessities left them with no means to afford her eye surgery, which was essential for her to resume her daily life. During this difficult time, a relative informed them about Transparent Hands. With hope in their hearts, Nusrat’s family reached out for support. After assessing her case and verifying her medical condition, Transparent Hands registered her for surgery.

On February 6, 2025, Nusrat’s eye surgery was performed at Isra University Welfare Hospital in Hyderabad. Dr. Rizwan performed the procedure smoothly, and Nusrat was discharged in a stable condition with greatly improved vision.

Nusrat was overwhelmed with gratitude, and she said:

“I can finally see clearly again. You brought light back into my life. Thank you for helping me when we had no one else to turn to.”

Your generous support gave Nusrat the gift of sight. She can now perform her daily tasks with ease.

This change in her life was made possible just because of your generous support. Her family is incredibly grateful to you.
