Empower Nusrat with Cataract Surgery

Nusrat Bibi's Story

Nusrat Bibi, a 43-year-old woman from Hyderabad, has been struggling with blurry vision for three months. Her worsening eyesight has made it increasingly difficult for her to perform everyday tasks such as managing her household and caring for her three children. Recently, Nusrat visited an eye specialist, who performed medical tests and diagnosed her with a cataract in her right eye. To restore her clear vision, the doctor advised phacoemulsification (phaco) with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Unfortunately, Nusrat’s family cannot afford the cost of this essential surgery. 

If Nusrat does not receive the surgery, her cataract may worsen, leading to complete blindness in her right eye. This will make her increasingly dependent on her family for even the simplest tasks, severely affecting her quality of life.

Nusrat’s husband works as a daily wage laborer, earning a modest income of PKR 20,000 per month. They have three children, two of whom are studying. The family lives in a rented house, paying PKR 5000 in rent each month. They struggle to cover their basic needs, including utility bills of PKR 1000 and educational expenses of PKR 1200. Due to their financial hardships, the family is unable to pay for the Nusrat’s much-needed surgery. During this time of need, Nusrat turned to Transparent Hands and asked for assistance.

Nusrat shared her feelings by saying: 

“My vision keeps getting worse, and I fear losing it completely. I want to be there for my children and take care of them, but this condition has made life so difficult. We can’t afford this surgery. I need your help. “
