Critical Eye Surgery for Philipp Kukushkin

Philipp's Story: A Vision Restored by UCAF Donors
Philipp is a young boy from Kherson who needed critical eye surgery to preserve and improve his vision.
In Ukraine, medical costs for surgeries often fall directly on families who are already struggling to meet daily needs. For Philipp’s family, the idea of paying for a specialized eye procedure in Kyiv felt nearly impossible.
Thanks to support from compassionate donors, Philipp’s surgery became a reality. His procedure was performed successfully in Kyiv, giving him not just clearer vision, but also greater confidence and comfort in his day-to-day life. For a child living through war and uncertainty, this kind of care is truly life changing.
His parents shared their gratitude for the opportunity to see their son heal and grow stronger. Their story is one of many that show how targeted support for medical needs can make a lasting impact on the lives of Ukrainian children.
