Sight, Strength, and a Second Chance

The couple worked as blacksmiths, making and selling iron tools to earn a simple living. Their routine fell apart when Kasturi began losing her vision to cataracts. She couldn’t work, and her husband stayed home to care for her. With no income, treatment felt impossible.

Hope came when they heard about a free eye screening camp supported by Trilochan Netralaya and Cure Blindness Project. There, she was identified with mature cataracts in both eyes and referred to Trilochan Netralaya for surgery.

With quiet courage, Kasturi underwent the procedure—free of cost, with support from Cure Blindness Project. Today, she can see clearly again. She’s back to work, back on her feet, and filled with joy and gratitude.
