Enable Shan Habib Ullah to See Clearly

Shan Habib Ullah's Story

Shan Habib Ullah, a 31-year-old man from Multan, is suffering from blurry and dim vision. His inability to see took away his job as a barber, leaving him unemployed. In addition, he faces immense challenges moving around his home, going outside, or even bringing something from a shop. Recently, he went to a local hospital and consulted a doctor. After conducting some medical tests, the doctor diagnosed him with a cataract in his left eye. A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye. To enable him to see clearly and live an independent life, the doctor has advised Phaco + IOL surgery. Unfortunately, the cost of the surgery is out of his financial capacity.

If Shan does not get the surgery soon, the cataract may slowly get worse. It may ultimately increase the risk of blindness and Shan will remain dependent on others for even minor tasks.

Shan lives in a modest rented home with his joint family of eleven members. His father works hard to cover household expenses while also supporting Shan and his family financially. With their limited monthly income, they struggle to pay PKR 8000 for house rent and PKR 1200 for utility bills. Shan’s family is barely making ends meet, and in these difficult circumstances, affording the cost of his life-changing surgery is beyond their reach. During this time of need, Shan reached out to Transparent Hands and asked for help.

Shan expressed his heartfelt plea as follows:

“The world is fading before my eyes, and I can’t do anything. Cataract surgery can bring back my sight, but I don’t have the means to pay for it. Kindly, help me in undergoing the surgery so that I can find a job and continue to provide for my family.”

Shan’s future depends on this surgery. With your kindness and generosity, we can ensure that he receives the much-needed treatment. 

Let’s join hands to help Shan undergo the life-changing eye surgery.
