Dharmender's world had shattered when a steel bar hit his left eye, dislocating the eye lens, at the factory he was working in. He belonged to Bihar and had migrated to Buddewal near Ludhiana in search of work where he started working and earned about USD70 per month. The only child of the family and only earning hand, was rushed to several local doctors but to no avail. Ultimately, his uncle, who rushed from Bihar, took him to PGIMER, where he was operated on 16th September at the Advance Eye Care Centre by Dr. Vaishali Gupta, under Rotary Gift of Sight project.
Dharmender is on his way to recovery. He would be able to retain 6x18 vision in his left eye with the help of spectacles, and be able to work.
