A clearer view, a new dream — Joomart's journey

For years, blurred vision made even a simple bus ride a challenge for Joomart Kokumov, who lives in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

However, after he received free eye treatment from a joint Chinese-Kyrgyz medical team, Joomart's vision improved.

Now, he has the chance to represent Kyrgyzstan on the world stage as a goalball player.
