Alishba Khalil's Story

Alishba Khalil, a 17-year-old girl from Muzaffargarh, has impaired and blurred vision due to a history of trauma in her right eye. Concerned about her condition, her parents took her to a nearby hospital and consulted a doctor. After performing a thorough examination, the doctor diagnosed her with subluxated lens. It is a condition in which a lens is partially displaced but remains within the lens space. Alishba faces difficulty while studying and her daily activities have also been badly impacted. Simple activities like walking or climbing the stairs have become increasingly difficult for her due to issues with depth perception. To treat this issue, her doctor recommended a right lensectomy and scleral fixation. However, the cost of the surgery is out of her family’s financial capacity.

Without surgical intervention for her subluxated lens, Alishba may experience significant visual impairment and potential progression to blindness. At her age, when most youngsters enjoy the perks of their teenage lives, Alishba is at a point where she struggles to navigate her surroundings.

Alishba lives in a small house with her parents and four siblings. She has one sister and three younger brothers who all are studying. Her father, the sole breadwinner in the family, works at a grocery store and earns just PKR 28000 per month. They barely make ends meet and pay PKR 2200 for utility bills and PKR 2500 for educational expenses. The financial strain of the surgery is an additional burden for the family who are already suffering from financial hardships. They have no savings at all and they simply can’t afford the surgery. During this challenging time, Alishba contacted Transparent Hands and asked for help. Alishba’s parents said in despair:

“It’s hard to find words to describe the struggle Alishba is facing. We long to bring her relief. Your kindness can be the help she needs to regain a clear vision and move forward. Kindly help our daughter and give her a chance to see the world clearly again.”

Alishba’s life is filled with hardships and only you can help her. Your donations can be the key to unlocking a world filled with colors for her.

Join hands and enable Alishba to reclaim her life.
