Aleck's magnifier for Aniridia

Donation protected
Hello!

My name is Aleck I am a very cheerful 9 year old that was born with Aniridia. Aniridia is a eye disorder that causes the absence of the colored part of my eye. This affects my sharpness of vison and makes me very sensitive to light. This does not stop me from playing with my siblings and family, playing sports like soccer with the bright orange ball my mom bought for me and reading books to my little sister and brother. I try my hardest to be the best at all of these but it's sometimes hard for me to see shapes and shadows and playing outside the sun can make this even worse. Reading books is a challenge because the letters are small and are very blurry for me. Even things that most kids and teens look forward to like driving I will not be able to do because of this. I would like to do things just like kids do and a magnifier would help me do that through reading books and learning new things. I would be so thankful for anything that would help me be able to achieve this! 

Also please feel free to help other kids and adults with the same disorder here

Thank you so much for stopping by and donating! Have a wonderful day!
