Krusita Meriora, 15 years

Recently we got help request from the mother of 15 years old girl- Krusita. She is   having  impaired vision from the very birth. In 2009 Krusita  had an operation in the State Children’s clinic “E. Cotsaga” to remove cataract. At that time doctors did not implant crystalline lens, and suggested to wait until she will reach 18 years old. But, because of problems with vision, she started to have very heavy headaches. Mother consulted “Ovisus” clinic, where, after a number of investigations doctors suggested to urgently perform implantation on both eyes.

Krusita’s family has financial difficulties. Mother can not work, because her daughter needs permanent care. Father does not have a labor contract, as there are no working  places available in the village they live, thus  he is doing  only small works at request. Because of the vision problems their daughter went to school later. Now she has finished the 8th class and will follow the 9th in the autumn. Krusita is very diligent  pupil, she likes learning. But one of her eye is totally blind, and she can read and write only using the other one, being in glasses and with magnifying glass. Krusita wants to see as other people do. We are opening fund raising for 31 350 MDL, for the operation to make implantations on both Krusita’s eyes. We kindly ask all warm hearted people to help Krusita to see the colors of life.
