The non-operated cataract is one of the main causes of blindness in the world. In our environment, it involves a 15-minute intervention, but in developing countries, the lack of resources and health personnel means that many people go blind due to cataracts at a very young age. The life expectancy of these people is going to be extremely short. Our NGO has operated for cataracts on almost 5000 people who were blind.
A common complication of cataract surgery is the opacification of the posterior lens capsule. If left untreated it can lead to blindness again. Treatment is through a small hole made in the capsule with a YAG laser. It is a process of just one minute that is carried out on an outpatient basis and restores the patient's vision. For this intervention a special laser (Nd-YAG laser) is needed whose cost, acquired in China, is € 12,000. That is our challenge to which we hope you will help us, get that amount
