You Empowered Arbab Ali with a Cataract Surgery

Arbab Ali's Story

Arbab Ali, a 52-year-old man from Jamshoro, Sindh, had spent the past year struggling with vision issues. What started as mild dimness in his left eye soon progressed into severe vision loss, making everyday tasks incredibly difficult. Simple chores became challenges, and Arbab found himself increasingly dependent on his family. Concerned for his worsening condition, Arbab visited a local hospital where he was diagnosed with a cataract in his left eye. The doctor recommended a left Phacoemulsification with Intraocular Lens (Phaco + IOL) surgery to restore his sight.

Arbab lives in a modest rented house with his wife and four children. As a daily wage laborer, he earns just PKR 38,000 per month, which is barely enough to cover rent, food, and basic household expenses. His three children attend a government school. Despite his limited means, Arbab works hard to ensure they get an education. He couldn’t afford to pay for the surgery. During this time of need, Arbab turned to Transparent Hands for help. With your generous donations, we were able to arrange his cataract surgery.

On April 8, 2025, Arbab’s left Phaco + IOL surgery was performed at Isra University Welfare Hospital in Hyderabad. Dr. Yaruq Sami expertly performed the procedure and restored Arbab’s vision.

After the surgery, Arbab expressed his happiness as follows;

“I never thought I’d be able to see clearly again. I can work again, take care of my family, and watch my children grow. I am truly grateful to you for helping me when I had nowhere else to turn. Thanks for being there for me.”

Arbab’s life has taken a remarkable turn after the surgery. His family extends their heartfelt gratitude to you.

Your kindness has brought light back into Arbab’s life and given him new hope and courage.
