Childhood cataracts are a major cause of treatable blindness. Early recognition,
surgical intervention and appropriate follow-up after surgery can result in good
visual outcomes. However, several factors may impact on the availability of such
services, including lack of an available, affordable and accessible comprehensive
eye care centre, financial limitations affecting coverage by the national
healthcare provider, and household socioeconomic status. We report a case of
congenital cataracts in a 12-year-old male adolescent from Northern Samar, the
Philippines, who was left blind since birth. This case highlights the disparities
in essential health services in the developing world and the challenges patients
face in getting the care they need.
