This is Xavier, a delightful 10 year old who had been told he was going to be blind. His family moved into Cuenca proper so he could begin learning braille.
HKIE took him to an eye specialist who determined he has many eye problems ( severe astigmatism and color blindness and a genetic retinal disorder causing night blindness).
HKIE previously provided him with an eye surgery in hopes his eyesight would stop deteriorating. We happy to report the surgeon is optimistic he will not lose his eyesight. You can imagine the smiles on Xavier's, and his mom's and brother's faces when they heard this news!
HKIE purchased a new pair of lenses for Xavier and he can see perfectly! This new miracle is made possible by our loyal HKIE supporters!
