Alif Ardiansyah journey

Alif was a very difficult to handle two year old boy.
He constantly felt agitated. Other kids considered him weird and a crier. No one liked playing with him.

Alif (2 years old) could only distinguish between light and dark. Darkness is a miserable state of being for young children, thus he constantly searched for light.

Alif, not a fan of eye drop. Tropicamet drop was put on his eye, to allow his pupil to dilate so our doctor can have a better view on the condition of his cataract.

No surgery for Alif today because he is too young to be pacified for surgery under local anesthesia. He needed to go under general anesthesia.

It is tough on mum, Alif could not be left alone, he always felt agitated and cried constantly. Almost inseparable from mum, he had to be carried when she is cooking and cleaning. This makes cooking a dangerous daily task for the mum and child.

It is very common for young children who can’t see to feel agitated, they are frustrated by their inability to see. They could only hear and feel, but their greatest sense (80% of our senses come from sight), is missing.
