Congenital cataracts “a name not heard in years. We welcomed our little bundle of joy on 5th Feb.
My baby had white dots in his eyes which upon investigating was found to be cataracts.
Doctors suggested surgery at 6th week. Surgery was required to remove natural lens of the eyes. So he had surgery of one eye at 6th week and the other at 7th week.
It was tough. Tough to see pain of my baby. Tough to see him crying all day tough to give him medicine every 2 hours but by the grace of Allah Almighty it went well. But the struggle is still there. We have to make him wear glasses all the time which is too difficult to manage. But still we are making our little effort.
May Allah help us and May my baby has a well-developed vision.
