Arjun Mishra, a 52-year-old teacher from Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, developed issues with his eyesight that impeded his normal duties. It was devastating news when he was informed that he had inherited macular degeneration. Doctors in his hometown could not do much to rectify the situation permanently.

In his search for better treatments, his son went online and, by reading some websites, stumbled upon Stem Cell Care India. Experts described to him how stem cell therapy could possibly replace the damaged retinal cells when Arjun visited their clinic in Delhi. Feeling encouraged, Arjun decided to go on.

Arjun was progressing wonderfully within just a few months of therapy. He regained enough vision to go back to teaching again and even paint, something he hadn’t done in ages. Today, inspiring others never to give up, he talks of genetic macular degeneration and the pioneering treatments available in India.
