The victim, Kate Aidoo, was attacked on March 25, 2019.
Dr. Opoku Ware Ampomah, director of the Center for Reconstructive Plastic Surgery and Burns at Korle-Bu University Hospital, said the doctors were striving to correct the sight of a mobile money dealer victim of an attack with acid.
The young woman was attacked by suspected thieves in Gomoah Fetteh, in the central region.
Dr. Ampomah told Joy News that the victim, Kate Aidoo, was suffering from blurry vision as a result of acid, a major concern for doctors.
"Ophthalmologists do their best. We are also eager to take her to the theater to graft her skin to her chest.
"The wounds on his chest are deep enough and would not heal if left alone," he said.
He explained that when the victim went from a life with its normal appearance to a life-long healing, it would be a traumatic journey.
"No surgery will restore you to its original state," he said.
The victim, Kate Aidoo, was attacked on March 25 at around 10:30 pm
She was seriously injured and was rushed to Christian Hope Hospital in Gomoah Fetteh, before being transferred to Korle Bu University Hospital.
The suspects, Yaw Danso and Amoo Daniel, who stole Miss Aidoo's money, were later arrested by Gomoah Ojobi police.
Two people arrested for stealing a mobile money seller and poured him acid.
The members of the Mobile Money Advocacy group made a cash donation for Mrs. Aidoo's interview.
Dr. Ampomah is concerned about the ease with which acid is available on the open market.
He said, "If you have the SGH5 [$1] you can easily get acid to buy on the market. Some of these chemicals are sometimes released.
Dr Ampomah explained that people's access to these chemicals should be limited by ensuring that chemicals (chemicals) are not allowed to be handled by anyone.
Many mobile money merchants have been victims of thieves attacks, some of whom have lost their lives.
Members of the Mobile Money Advocacy Group told Joy News that they advised their members not to retaliate when they were attacked, particularly by armed robbers.
Secretary General Michael Asante said members were putting their lives at risk by attacking thieves.
