You Empowered 46 Patients with Cataract Surgeries

Let’s Provide Cataract Surgeries to Needy Patients in Pakistan's Story

In Pakistan, over 51% of blindness is caused by cataract. Recently, Transparent Hands successfully provided free treatments to 46 patients who had been living in darkness for a long time. These individuals had been struggling with vision loss, which made even simple daily tasks like walking, cooking, or recognizing faces extremely difficult for them. A thorough medical evaluation revealed that they were suffering from cataract in one or both eyes, and the only solution was Phaco + IOL surgery.

However, the cost of surgery was beyond their financial reach. Many of these patients were daily wage earners, homemakers, or the only providers for their families, and their impaired vision took away their independence. With no financial support and growing isolation, their hope was fading.

Through the incredible support of generous donors, Transparent Hands provided them with free cataract surgeries. They received high-quality lenses, including AcrySof IQ IOL (Alcon) and UltraSert (Pre Loaded). These intraocular lenses are known for delivering excellent visual outcomes. All surgeries were performed by expert ophthalmologists at our panel hospitals, following strict safety and hygiene protocols. Post-operative care, medications, and follow-ups were also provided at no cost to the patients.

The following are the details of all the needy patients who underwent eye surgeries through your support.
