Samsul Haque                                                 
Age 71 Years old
Occupation: Retired worker of a mill factory
Gandaria, Dhaka. 
 

Samsul Haque lives with his only daughter in Gandaria, Dhaka. He used to work in a mill factory and run his family but as he aged; his vision began to become blurry. Initially, he did not pay much heed to it and continued working but as time went by, it became severely distressful for him to continue working and eventually he stopped.

Samsul Haque attended one of our eye screening camps, where he was diagnosed with cataracts and recommended for surgery. However, he could not go forward with the surgery because of financial issues. When we learned about his financial crisis, he was offered the surgery package at a discounted rate. Our motive was to restore the blurry vision of a person, who was struggling to do his daily tasks.

By the grace of Almighty, the surgery was successful. Samsul Haque can now see without any issue. As much as Samsul Haque is relieved, his daughter is also very happy.

With every passing day, the blurriness seemed to increase and the family feared that Zohura would turn blind.
