Nazim Uddin is a 10 years old boy, living in Jhagrar Char village in Bhairob Upazilla of Kishorganj district. He was born with bilateral cataract in his eyes. His parents came to know about the problem when he was around 1/2 years old. But they did not know about the cataract and its treatment. They thought it's a simple white pupil and will disappear as he grows up. But their assumption proved wrong. As he was growing up, his eye sights starts to less. He could not see the black board in the school and read his book well. His father Azim Uddin becomes tensed about his son. At that time he came to know from the village school teacher (one of the trained Key Informants, CSF staff use to train the local community member to identify the blind children) that Child Sight Foundation is going to organize an Eye Screening Camp in the Bhairob Upazilla Health Complex. He took his son there and the Doctor examined Nizam's eyes. The doctor referred him to the Islamia Eye Hospital (a partner hospital of CSF). In 2002 Nizam's sight restoring was held in Islamia eye hospital at free of cost. Since then 3 years has been passed. Now he can see very well and goes to school regularly. His parents are very happy for the changes in their son's life.
