Help Englai Get His Vision Back!
Donation protected
Hi my name is Englai! I hope you can help me to be able to see again!
Surfing is my life, which led me to deal with an eye injury. At the end of September 2022, I felt crazy pain in my right eye and after visiting an eye specialist, I was advised I needed an operation. They thought it was my "Pterygium" and an operation would relieve my pain, but I was wrong! On November 1, they operated on my right eye in Denpasar. Then I had a check up once a week for several weeks until the doctor could give me permission to do activities and work again.
The membranes of my eyes which were getting thinner from the surgical incision but one month later, the doctor allowed me to return to my activities and be able to surf again!
A few weeks later, the worst happened. It turned out that the scar from the operation was infected, all of a sudden my vision was getting blurry and I couldn't see anymore! It is definitely the sickest disease I have ever experienced, making it impossible for me to sleep every night, I was in constant pain.
My results were transferred to the Bali Mandara Eye Hospital, where many people suggest seeking treatment there because the hospital specializes in the eyes! In February 2023 I underwent the second operation to clean the infection and pus attached to the retina of my eye (I could not see or open it). My vision did not improve after this and I could only see 10%. A few months later, at the end of April 2023, I underwent my 3rd surgery, to replace the implant of my eye lens. Of course, the pain was excruciating, I was bleeding for several weeks, but my vision could only be restored to 40%!
I'm very sad, of course, and I'm stressed too. At my young age, I have to try to recover and be able to see again! I have spent all my savings, I haven't been able to work, and I have no money left. It's thanks to all of my friends support that I was able to survive as I no longer have my parents, and this injury also led me to become quite depressed as I could not leave my room for 6 months.
I was advised to seek treatment abroad, in Singapore. The doctor said that they could fix my eye, but it would need 2 or 3 operations because it is serious and of course the cost was quite expensive.
I have spent hundreds of millions in the last 10 months, whether it's transportation, hospital fees or daily expenses. And I'm in need of 120 million for treatment in Singapore.
If you can, I would really appreciate if you could help me to see and work again.
