Its Late Afternoon and both doctors have been operating for more than 5 hours but the crowd outside desperate for their turn isnt easing up. Finally its turn. These cataracts are. Not going to mature but they have a mature. And to burst out if she left her for longer would it be possible to operate. Them is a really good point. Was collinson this clock. Would probably be left with. An absolute by and i. Concur both. After a few minutes the surgery is done. But. The next morning back at the i camp anticipation and anxiety filled the yeah. Ok. Im normal. I had to no one seems as anxious as your mother i. Just thought of whatever that other. Men did the talk of the day go. On my mum. Number thats up if youre going to our front i would but we had a look at that im a letter from the middle not some other. Yeah right im like yeah. Yeah theres some other way like. If you hear. Somebody say that. My dog is any good i know ive been doing other well we do the fact that this is somebody that weve got. To get out of the class find your you know youre going to go so theyre going to want to that might get my attention that. You know you and i you know this so they can intervention is one of the few you know where you will see the patient like this just within 24 hours you know and after 24 hours sees at least 10 years younger than she was yesterday that brings the life brings to life you know the this milestone the author of here and i you know in a cycle of psychology and confidence and you see probably has a legacy expressed in the word that in a beautiful or today getting away from a deep sleep you know let itself say so. But none of these villages here thought theyd ever see again. Its a new beginning. To an awful lot like in the silliness of when i was in my life so i feel like ive just come eyes of my mothers womb and everything is so clear i just want to do my work and roam in the fields i havent been anywhere in the past few years but once i gained strength i would like to travel around. Its the end of dr joyces month long training in nepal shell be taking what shes learned home to indonesia to the small island of nias wish to serve as the only trained eye doctor. Its a lot of pressure but she remains upbeat. And yes im happy to return to me yes apart from see my family i can also help the cataract patients in me as regain their eyesight. A few days later i also head for indonesia. I want to see how dr joyce is doing if doctors are having problems getting into nepals mountains indonesias 17000 islands are even more challenging its why having a local eye surgeon is crucial. In that he has one of the highest rates of cataract blindness in the world with experts estimating between 2 and 3000000 people affected by the disease theres been no official studies done here on this island but its not just adults who are suffering from correct blindness and were about to find out why. While altitude is a problem in the pool here is the ultraviolet rays reflecting off the water for a community that spends a lot of time in the ocean many are at high risk of developing cataracts. Today dr joyce is conducting the islands 1st cataract surgery camp 2 of dr awaits former students have flown in to help. While cataracts are usually associated with older people we find children among the waiting patients at that but for cataracts in children there is a possibility to have it from birth or that depression mother suffered from malnutrition or fever contract a chicken pox but usually the cataracts dont fully form until theyre about 11 to 17 years old. The siblings are given something to comfort them in preparation for whats to come. It takes about 5 minutes for the anesthesia to take effect and then its time for surgery. In the theater dr joyce is getting ready to operate on her 1st child patient. Of the. 13 year old solvent. Is afraid of needles and hid the fact that he was blind in one eye but when he found out there was a free i camp he confessed to his parents that he had trouble saying dr joyce makes the incision but its not easy to keep a young patient calm. But its soon over and solon is sent off to recover for dr joyce its on to the next patient. The hospital that shes working in is extremely basic sanitation is a problem and theres a severe lack of medical equipment we found only one sterilizer. But fortunately with dr awaits technique you dont need much. And 264 operations are completed here in just 2 days. The next morning the patients line up they and dr joyce are about to find out if the surgeries worked. Dr joyces young patient souls and is now able to see in his right eye itll take time to feel so when fully recovers. My mind numbing but. I have 5 can you say maybe one made a little piece. Of us. Some number and i feel happy and proud when my patients forgave their eyesight after their operation so the butt hole had from my. C eyes this size lowly key is the patients begin to sing and dance its been a successful 1st camp. From nepal to indonesia dr awaits vision is inspiring a new generation of doctors. With the surgery so simple and for many free. They not only restoring sight to the worlds poorest there is storing hope. That was the gift of sight the story of an extraordinary man whose work changes lives well we return recently to naipaul to meet dr wrote again hes now working to develop community our hospitals to take the prevention of cataract the. Imus down to a local level. 5 is on life seems completely full and sharp who lives in bomb in the foothills of the he mom yes. Shes now in her mid seventys and established in neven hours on treacherous roads for an eye test of the hospital in come on to the guy that. Ive been doing that and what enjoy you are going to get out of it. And you gotta be. Marketable might know. What im talking about my so called the no gun got my top. Of the temple sauce on im going to eat. By the sword like most of us up there i can see the confidence and of why its because he was so timid that time you know and now as he sort of free larry isnt made fun and i know i could get lots of the malaria. I dont. But look if i would have money that money cant have. And this with a kid with a. That again oleksiak of. The right if youre right it was you young guy who. Played it that i would. Have had a better hood ive got what kind of mother. Although and site is clearly back she still needs glasses. For that but if you. Add that number that im going to get matter how bad how old are you. As well as performing surgeries dr drew its hospital also manufactures them says in the last 5 years its nearly doubled its production to around 500000 a year and its hospital has been recognized by the world health organization. A 5. Man to santa dr drew it runs a community i hospital in moscow 100 district. A team of 3 i talk to and support staff runs this hospital screening more than 300 patients every day and performing nearly 5000 surgeries a year most of them cataract surgeries like that of anglo. Its a model that dr who it says is easily johns for 2 other developing countries where the initial investment of 2000000. 00 over 3 years before the hospital becomes fully sustainable. This area is for sure. Situation the the window same as same. Miller to us so double up a system here keeping in mind that we face these cells tickle so such a system of eye care can very easy be replicated in other countries with similar challenges. And if his plan succeeds thousands more will get the gift of sight just like anger.

Tell the world coming soon on aljazeera de mello and may god be negotiating it we would have a deal and we would have an albino every time she put a deal and you disagree with that deal this is a trial but it is the worst of the lot it was brought to us what you know what it was all made he has sand there is head to head with the chairman of the u. K. s practicality richard tied the terms very loose tough im shocked that it was not a loose about its often shop its pretty clear actually it isnt as clear as bricks it means but so yes it is and its just as clearly when you see. On down to 0. Aljazeera. Where ever you are. Turkish forces take more ground in Northern Syria as the kurds strike a deal with the assad regime to help. Low on down jordan this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up celebrations in ecuadors capital after the government agrees to repeal the law that sparked nearly 2 weeks of deadly protests. All of us a high side claims victory into his ears president ial election last. Some of the most pristine beaches in the northeastern brazil have been covered by crude oil its been washing up on the beaches nobody knows exactly where this is coming from and. Brazil story. We begin in syria where Government Forces have struck a deal with the kurdish Led Syrian Democratic forces which will see the syrian army deploy along the border with turkey the agreement comes in the face of a turkish offensive in Northern Syria thats led to heavy fighting in places the s. D. F. Says the deployment of syrian troops will help them liberate areas under the control of Turkish Forces so you know how to reports now from the Turkish Border with syria. The map is changing in North Eastern syria turkey and its syrian allies are moving into what were british controlled towns. And the Syrian Democratic forces are pushed from a 120 kilometer stretch of territory along the turkish syria border and 30 kilometers south of that is where turkish led forces now control an important supply line the m 4 highway that connects western syria to iraq it seems phase one of turkeys air and ground operation to eliminate what it considers and National Security threat on its border has been completed. We will divide the terror corridor 490 kilometers down the middle we will advance 30 to 35 kilometers into syrian territory according to the states own map which we have declared before. That means there is likely a phase 2 of the military operation that would involve more fighting with the s d f who were abandoned when u. S. President donald trump effectively gave turkey a green light to launch the operation a few days ago now the Us Administration which long called the s. D. F. Partners unexpectedly announced it would draw all of american troops from the north east leaving this corner of syria up for grabs. We are facing genocide so all options are open we are ready for negotiations with damascus the arab league the European Union and even iran who have a complainer role to stop the invasion. The population of this corner of syria is fearful of what comes next arabs and kurds live here they have a long history of animosity syrias war has deepened old wards little trust between them means there is a dangerous fault line there are reports of a russian brokered deal to allow Syrian Government troops to enter kurdish controlled towns. And member that would prevent turkey from including those towns in a socalled safe zone that it wants to create in Northern Syria how turkey reacts is not clear but it may try to prevent that from happening because it would disrupt its plans to create what it calls a Peace Corridor along most of its border turkeys syrian allies are already heading to the front lines in following an announcement by the syrian army that it was sending troops to the north of the country new front lines are emerging the new landscape may be drawn militarily or by back door deals but there seems to be a likely outcome this may be the beginning of the end of kurdish rule in North Eastern syria. On the turkey syria border. And later sent us this update. Fast moving developments the United States is the solution to leave North Eastern syria effectively created a vacuum there are many players in the syrian conflict and all of them would like a stake in this corner of syria it is a strategic corner it is where oil fields are located it is the ag its the bread basket of syria for the damascus government is cash strapped it would it would definitely want to regain control of this area the s. D. F. The kurdish the f. Had little choice because 1st of all it was abandoned by its allies the United States and it is coming under attack and the turkish army along with their local allies the opposition Syrian National army they have been launching an operation against a group they consider a terrorist organization because according to turkey the if the backbone of the s. The f. Is the Syrian Kurdish armed group the white p. G. Which is linked to the outlawed p k k so the s. D. F. Had little choice it struck a deal with damascus a russian brokered deal that agreed to hand over the territories that remain under their control to the government now the question is will they be able to do that because the opposition is making clear that they will fight back they will prevent this from happening especially in the town of members when rebel forces have already sent reinforcements to the front lines the syrian army at the same time saying that theyre sending troops to the north of the country to face what theyre calling a turkish invasion so that the risk of conflict is real is specially if these players cannot negotiate a coordinated withdrawal or an agreement of who takes what in what area meanwhile a funeral has been held for a kurdish leader who was killed in an ambush on saturday who have been hamas the secular general of future syria policy was returning from a meeting when a car was a time to allegedly by turkey about fighters a driver an aide who owns and killed a syrian observatory for human Rights Groups supported by turkey have killed 9 civilians in the area. While all of this was happening turkeys president has dismissed claims that eisel prisoners have escaped from the tension centers in northeast syria it follows reports that an unconfirmed number of people fled from a center in.

S. Announced it was pulling out all remaining american troops from Northern Syria the us president has been accused of abandoning the kurds his secretary of defense has been on sunday talk shows trying to defend trumps position we find ourselves as we have American Forces likely caught between 2 opposing advancing armies and its a very untenable situation the courage to be very good partners in the da says campaign they were very good fighters on the battlefield we obviously enabled that as well but at the same time we didnt stand out to fight the turks on their behalf ecuadors government has agreed to repeal a law that ended decades old fuel subsidies after holding talks with Indigenous Leaders these are the latest pictures of celebrations taking place in the capital quito its a very different scene we saw earlier when demonstrators angry at the rise in fuel prices attacked government buildings and burnt media offices they have now agreed to end the protests which began nearly 2 weeks ago Monita Rajpal has more now from the capital.
