Lerato's Journey

When we first shared Lerato Dibe's story, she was living with a severe visual impairment. With just 5% vision in one eye and limited vision in the other, even the simplest daily tasks had become a challenge, and she needed specialised treatment to improve her vision.

After Lerato's story aired on Good Morning Angels, LottoStar stepped in to fund her treatment through Operation Healing Hands, with the support of a dedicated team of eye care specialists who generously donated their services.

Following her treatment, Lerato's results exceeded all expectations. What once felt uncertain has become a new beginning opening the door to opportunities that once seemed out of reach.

Today, she has 50% vision in one eye and 70% in the other. One of the things she is most excited about is learning to drive - something she once never imagined would be possible.

LottoStar and The Star Foundation are grateful to have been part of Lerato's journey and thank Good Morning Angels, Operation Healing Hands and the dedicated medical specialists whose support and expertise helped make this possible.

For Lerato, the future she once hoped for is becoming a reality.
