However, for millions of people living in poverty around the world, their lack of access to quality and free eyecare means that even if they realise their eyesight is worsening, they have no way of getting the support they need to treat it. Often, the cataract worsens and the person ends up blind with no way of tackling their blindness.
Thankfully, even if cataracts lead to total blindness, eyesight can be restored with a simple procedure, which replaces the clouded lens with a new one, enabling the person to see again. This is why we are using your donations of Zakat for cataract surgeries, helping people to see again.
