Caption: Photo caption For twenty years, in the heart of Africa, Dr. Richard Hardi eye doctor has been healing patients in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Richard works in Mbuji-Mayi, the center of a country (which is as big as two Hungarian counties combined), in the region’s only well-equipped operating room. He sets out from here, as on a star trail, to remote corners of the county to give a chance to patients who live 600-800 kilometers from the eye center. Due to the non-existent public transportation system, patients (often elderly and children) make their way on foot. Patients who often have almost completely lost their eyesight to cataract come to Richard’s temporary operating room, holding on to their relatives or settling on the trunk of a bike. As Richard puts it: "Taking 300-400 kilometers on these roads is as if in Budapest I asked one patient’s relative to push their 70-year-old blind grandmother to Paris on the trunk of their bike.” For many, this is

the only chance not to live helpless and blind for the rest of their lives inside of some mud hut. The vast majority of patients, however, suffers from simple cataract. Due to the strength of the equatorial sun and the lack of medical screening, this region is particularly affected by disorders related to cataract, regardless of the fact that this eye disease could be treated with a simple, 15-minute routine surgery. Mbedji The 7-year-old Mbedji is blind in both eyes for three years due to cataract. The family brought the little girl to Dr. Richard’s from their hometown Nkembe, 80 kms from the temporary operating room in Kole. They led her by her hand for most of the road, while on the more difficult paths her grandmother carried Mbedji on her back. As they only arrived at the operating room on the last day of surgeries, Richard, disregarding all the rules, performed surgery on both of her eyes – who could tell when the family would be able to set out on such a jo

urney again. The surgery was successful and Mbedji could see perfectly by the next day. Getting her vision back, she also regained her life: she can go to school and later she can have a family as well – she is no longer condemned to solitude and misery. Caption: Waking up from anesthesia, Mbedji is carried by her grandmother back to their windowless mud hut, where they stay for a few days, out of courtesy of a distant relative.
