CHINIOT: An eight-year-old girl, who lost her eyesight due to alleged negligence of doctors last week, died here on Sunday.
She was robbed of her eyesight due to poor handling of her doctors at a Lahore hospital.
Javeria, a resident of Chiniot village, had developed pain in her eyes four months back. She was initially treated in Chiniot.
Getting no results, she was taken to the Allied Hospital in Faisalabad and then Fazal Umar Hospital in Chanab Nagar. Later, she was transferred to a children's hospital in Lahore, where she remained under treatment for seven days.
According to the girl's father, the doctors in the hospital prescribed eye drops for her which only exacerbated her pain. Eventually, she lost her eye sight.
The parents had appealed to the government to take action against the doctors.
Allah Yar, father of Javeria, had borrowed Rs 250,000 for her treatment.
