Light Up Cheeman Bibi’s Life with Eye Surgery

Cheeman Bibi's Story

Cheeman Bibi, a 67-year-old woman from Lahore, is experiencing cloudy and dim vision. She went to a doctor to get her eyes checked and was diagnosed with a cataract in her right eye. Cheeman has lived a long life filled with memories and joys. However, now her life has become full of struggles due to her diminished eyesight. She is unable to see her loved one’s smiles. Not only does she struggle to walk around the home without support but also faces difficulty in carrying out her routine tasks. Her condition has made her depressed, frustrated, and isolated.

Her doctor advised Phaco + IOL surgery to restore her vision. Cheeman longs to see her surroundings and wants to spend her remaining years happily. Unfortunately, the financial strain of the much-needed surgery is overwhelming for her family.

Cheeman lives in a small brick house with her four children. Her four sons are daily wage laborers and have a combined income of PKR 40000. This income is barely sufficient to cover the cost of their utility bills, groceries, and other daily living expenses. Despite their immense love for their mother, Cheeman’s children can’t afford her life-changing surgery. Her family reached out to Transparent Hands and asked for help.

Cheeman Bibi said with teary eyes:

“I miss the time when I could perform the daily tasks independently and take care of my family. Now, I feel like a burden on others. I wish to get rid of this condition as soon as possible. For this reason, I need support from generous donors. Kindly help me.”

Transparent Hands swiftly registered her case and needs your support to help her undergo the surgery. The cataract surgery will improve her vision, social activities, and overall quality of life.

We urge you to come forward and support Cheeman Bibi to bring her back from darkness to the world of colors. Let’s join hands and let her spend the remaining years of her life with independence.
