TRANSCRIPT

Prathamesh's family prevented an 'avoidable' blindness from affecting his life with a simple,

timely eye examination.

One year old Prathamesh was referred to the Tulsi Chanrai Eye Hospital, a MFV partner, by his local doctor when the child did not respond to visual stimulii like other children

of his age.

His family brought him to the hospital knowing the high quality of eye care provided. Prathamesh was diagnosed

with congenital cataract in both eyes. He underwent surgery immediately.

Prathamesh will have regained his vision in his left eye and soon his right eye will also be operated

upon.
