You Helped Us Restore Hanif’s Eyesight

Muhammad Hanif's Story

Muhammad Hanif, a 71-year-old man from Lahore, was suffering from short-sightedness and blurry vision. Upon consultation with a doctor, he was diagnosed with a cataract in his right eye. To restore his vision, the doctor recommended Phaco+IOL surgery. However, affording the cost of the surgery was beyond his financial abilities as he was already facing financial hardships. His family has a meager monthly income and they live in a modest home.

Hanif’s life was badly affected by his visual impairment. He used to bump into things while walking and carrying out routine tasks became significantly challenging. He desperately needed the surgery but was unable to pay for it. If left untreated, the cataract could have become worse and increased the risk of glaucoma and even blindness. During this time of need, he contacted Transparent Hands and asked us for help. After listening to his concerns, we promptly registered the case.

On 20th August 2024, he underwent right Phaco + IOL surgery by Dr. Shaheer at Life Hospital, Lahore. After the surgery, he couldn’t believe how bright and clear everything appeared to him.

He expressed deep gratitude, and said, “Thank you for giving me back the ability to see the world. It’s nothing short of a miracle.”

The patient’s family is incredibly grateful to you for supporting them and making this surgery possible through Transparent Hands. Your support has brought light back into his life.  Not only did you restore his vision but also allowed him to spend his life with independence and dignity. They will never forget your generosity.
