Khaberni - the eye medicine and surgery consultant and specialist in laser vision correction and cornea transplantation "Dr. Nancy Khalaf Al-Riqad" announced that the Royal Medical Services performed an operation to implant an artificial cornea for a 104-year-old Jordanian elder, marking a historic precedent due to the woman's age.
Al-Riqad said in a post on social media:
In a historical precedent…
We implanted an artificial cornea for a genuine Jordanian elder who is 104 years old…
An implantation that brightened our hearts before it illuminated the darkness for her
Her genuine narration, her strong will, and her very Jordanian smile...
The face of our grandmothers carrying the nation
And an eye that now sees it more beautifully…
Praise be to God, who tasked us to serve His good servants… may God prolong the life of this dignified woman… and bless her with health
