Taking a gift of sight to new heights

In Nyalam county near the border of Nepal, the medical team cured a 73-year-old woman who had lost her sight because of cataracts on both of her eyes. The woman had to rely on her husband for years.

When the woman took off the gauze patches the day after her surgery, she was able to see the world again. Tears ran down her face.

"She expressed thanks to us for bringing hope to her and her family," Wang recalls.
