You Helped Us Restore Muhammad Shanwar’s Eyesight

Muhammad Shanwar's Story

Muhammad Shanwar, an 8-year-old boy from Khanewal, was suffering from short-sightedness and blurry vision. Upon consultation with a doctor, he was diagnosed with a cataract in his left eye. To restore his vision, the doctor recommended LMA+IOL surgery. However, affording the cost of the surgery was beyond his family’s financial abilities as he was already facing financial hardships. His family has a meager monthly income and they live in a modest home.

Shanwar’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, his family contacted Transparent Hands and asked us for help. After listening to his concerns, we promptly registered the case.

Dr. Asif Manzoor performed his left LMA+ IOL surgery at Bakhtawar Amin Memorial Hospital on 11th May 2024. His parents said with happiness,

“Our son can see clearly. Thanks for your help!”

The patient’s family is incredibly grateful to you for supporting Shanwar 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.
