Olloyer's eye surgery was a success. The boy, who was born prematurely and struggled with retinopathy of prematurity, now has a chance to regain his sight. The surgery was performed in St. Petersburg, Russia, due to the lack of necessary medical assistance in Uzbekistan.

We express our gratitude to everyone who supported Olloyor and his family during this difficult period. With your help we were able to provide the necessary medical care to the little boy and give him hope for the future.

About the campaign

Olloyor needs an operation to save his eyesight!

Olloyor was born prematurely and spent the first two and a half months of his life in the NICU. At 5 months of age, an ophthalmologist looked at the boy's eyes and discovered retinal detachment due to retinopathy of prematurity, a dangerous disease of prematurity. This means almost total blindness.

In this case, only eye surgery can help. Surgery will prevent the eyes from being destroyed as an organ and if the outcome is favorable, it will return the retina, and thus the ability to see!

Due to the lack of doctors in Uzbekistan who can perform such surgery, the family will have to come to Russia, to St. Petersburg for treatment. But without Russian citizenship and an OMS policy, they will have to pay for the surgery. Olloyor's mother raises two children alone and is in a very difficult financial situation.

Olloyor grows up to be a very kind and inquisitive little boy. Let's help him to see together!
