Every monthly donation helps more patients like Chengiah regain sight
Chengiah, a handicapped cleaner with the Tirupati Municipal corporation, developed blurred vision in both his eyes and began to lose vision. As the sole breadwinner of his family, going blind meant that he would no longer be able to earn a living and his family would have to suffer even for sustenance. He was referred to an eye camp where he was diagnosed with cataracts.
Through Pammal Sankara Eye Hospital's 'Kannoli-Vision Saver Project', he had a successful cataract surgery with Intraocular lenses. He was provided with free surgery, accommodation, medicines, food, dark glasses and transport.
Today, Chengiah's vision is completely restored and he continues to work and provide for his family. The timely assistance has been a new lease of life for his family.
Access to health care services will ease the burden of healthcare costs and encourage the underprivileged to seek medical help
