Bushra Bibi approaches IHC over worsening eyesight, seeks treatment from doctors of her choice

Imran Khan's wife, Bushra Bibi, has filed a petition with the Islamabad High Court (IHC) after her eyesight has reportedly worsened. While serving a seven-year sentence for corruption, Bushra is also facing an additional 17-year term in the Toshakhana-2 case. The court has been asked to order an immediate eye examination by an ophthalmologist and to permit her to receive treatment from her own preferred doctors at her own expense.

In a recent meeting with Imran Khan at Adiala jail on November 2, Bushra's eyes were found to be severely impaired. She was wearing dark-tinted glasses and complained of extreme discomfort in both sunlight and artificial light. The PTI founder expressed deep concern over his wife's deteriorating condition. Bushra's personal doctors had previously advised that she required another eye surgery, which was scheduled for November 15.

However, the prolonged delay in her medical examination and treatment could further jeopardize her vision. The IHC is being urged to intervene and ensure that Bushra receives the necessary specialist medical attention promptly.
