Ten years ago, I was diagnosed with myopia degeneration, a severe form of nearsightedness that can cause vision loss and blindness over time. After years of research, a breakthrough treatment called Red Light Therapy is now available in the USA and offers the chance to restore up to 50% of my vision. I have the opportunity to start this treatment, but because it’s still in a pilot program, it isn’t covered by insurance. The total cost is $4,000. Any donation will help me take this life-changing step toward preserving my sight and independence. Thank you for your support!
