My vision has been getting progressively worse for the past eight years. Three years ago, I couldn't renew my driver's license because I failed the eye test.

Without medical aid, I faced waiting lists of 2-3 years for government clinics.

In April, I finally got an appointment with a private eye surgeon. After paying R1400, I scheduled surgery at Frere Eye Clinic for May 20, 2025.

My eyes are so sore; I avoid bright lights, and sitting under fluorescent lighting is unbearable.

I've landed a wonderful job as a member of a 'Super Admin Management' team, but I’m scared that my deteriorating vision will affect my accuracy. A private surgery within a shorter period costs R26K per eye, totalling R52,000, plus the cost of glasses for the vision that the operation won't fully restore.

Any support to help me afford this crucial surgery would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
