A New Vision for Rico Martinez

Hi my name is Christina Mejia, and my nephew Rico Martinez has been diagnosed with Keratoconus which is a rare eye disorder.

Keratoconus (KC) is a disorder of the eye that results in progressive thinning of the cornea. We have seen an ophthalmologist and have been told Rico will need surgery within six months. Being that Keratoconus is a progressive disorder it is vital that Rico have a corneal cross-linking surgery as soon as possible if he is to have any chance at keeping his vision. As you can imagine this is devastating news to our family, we are forever grateful to anything anyone can help with. Prayers and donations are greatly appreciated!
