Vision Aid Overseas: Lidiya from Zambia


Lidiya lives in a small village in Zambia. She always had major problems with her eyes and even walking without assistance was a struggle. She was unable to benefit from school so she never managed to get a job.
Most of her time was spent at home although there was little she could do to help her mother. Fortunately she visited a VAO clinic where she was given an eyetest and found to be in need of very strong spectacles with -12.00 lenses for both eyes. The VAO team provided a pair which made an immediate and dramatic improvement to her vision. She left the clinic unaided, her quality of life transformed.
Vision Aid Overseas is registered charity (in England) no. 1081695
