Eye surgery for Tracy

Tracy, one of the girls in the Torre Fuerte home, has a condition called Keratoconus.* Without treatment, her already poor vision will worsen and probably lead to the need for corneal transplants.

It's all pretty bleak for a fourteen year old, but there is hope with some modern techniques. The minor surgery  involves corneal implants and something called crosslinking. It is quick and relatively non-invasive, but ... it's expensive. 

This is a new twist for us at the Torre Fuerte home, and a bit scary, but necessary. Please give today and help us tosave Tracy's vision.

 

*(a degenerative condition of the eye that involves thinning of the cornea. The normal shape of the cornea becomes distorted and a cone-shaped bulge develops, resulting in a progressive blurring of the vision).
