On the last day of the year 2009, Dr B.B Rai and team operated a 99 year old granny, Mrs. Hari Priya Dhungyel from Pemathang, S/Jongkhar. She had senile cataract with retinal degeneration with presenting vision of Counting Finger at 3 metres. Next day, 01. 01. 2010, her post-operative vision improved to 6/18 with pin hole. Indeed, a very good improvement keeping in mind the presence of retinal degeneration. She had a very uneventful post operative period and managed to go home by bus all the way to S/jongkhar from Mongar!
What a wonderful new year gift to this granny who is about to touch 100 years of here life! This should have been flashed in the newspapers as a great success story of the medical science in Bhutan!
