Shan Regained His Eyesight After Cataract Surgery

Shan Habib Ullah's Story

Shan Habib Ullah, a 31-year-old resident of Multan, faced a significant challenge when his vision began to blur and dim. Once a skilled barber, Shan took pride in supporting his family through his work. As his eyesight deteriorated, so did his ability to carry out the tasks of his profession. Eventually, he was forced to leave his job. Worried about his worsening condition, Shan went to a local hospital where doctors conducted a detailed eye examination and diagnosed Shan with a cataract in his left eye. The doctors recommended Phacoemulsification with Intraocular Lens (Phaco + IOL) surgery to restore his vision. However, the cost of the surgery was far beyond Shan’s means.

Shan lives in a modest rented house with a joint family of eleven members. With no personal income, he relies on his elderly father, who works hard to support the entire household. Already burdened with financial strain, the family could not afford the surgery, leaving Shan in a state of despair. During his search for help, Shan found Transparent Hands. He turned to us and asked for help. After listening to his concerns, we swiftly registered his case.

On April 25, 2025, Shan was admitted to Bakhtawar Amin Memorial Trust Hospital in Multan. Dr. Safeet Shahbaz performed the left Phaco + IOL surgery successfully on April 26, 2025. The procedure went smoothly, and Shan was discharged the same day.

Sharing his joy and relief, Shan said:

“I can finally see clearly again! This surgery has given me a new beginning. I’m so thankful to everyone who helped make it possible. You’ve brought light back to my life.”

Today, Shan is on the path to resuming his career and daily responsibilities with confidence and independence.

His restored vision has brought new hope and stability to his family. He is incredibly thankful to you.
