Meet the child
Vanya has aniridia (a very rare congenital genetic disease characterized by the absence of the iris). The boy has been a ward of the foundation since 2016.

Behind Vanya is a long and difficult path of struggle for vision. From a very early age, the boy is observed by ophthalmologists: numerous examinations, operations in Belarus, Russia and Germany.
In September 2021, Vanya suddenly went blind. On September 22, 2021, the boy underwent an urgent operation to transplant a donor cornea and restore the position of the retina at the Saarland University Hospital (Homburg, Germany), which the parents paid for on their own. German doctors also performed the 2nd operation on October 20, 2021. (The operation was paid for thanks to the help of caring people). This surgical treatment consisted of loosening the sutures on the donor cornea and replacing the silicone oil in the eye. The operations were successful, the specialists restored the boy's vision in his only active eye.

In order to save his sight, in the next two years the boy needs to fly to Germany every 6 months for silicone oil replacement surgeries.

Dear benefactors, thank you for helping Vanya in his fight for his eyesight!
