Imran Khan's Eye Condition Sparks Health Concerns
Imran Khan, a former leader in Pakistan, is in jail and his party says he has a serious eye problem that could make him go blind.
They say the jail isn't letting him see his own doctor or get the right treatment.
His family and friends are worried and want him to be able to see them and get the medical help he needs.
The party also says the government is treating Khan unfairly for political reasons.
The party has asked the courts to help, but so far, they haven't been able to meet with Khan or get the treatment he needs.
Imran Khan's party claims he has a serious eye condition called Central Retinal Vein Occlusion, which could cause permanent damage if untreated.
Khan, 73, is currently imprisoned at Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi for a corruption case.
PTI alleges that jail authorities are preventing him from receiving proper medical treatment, despite court orders.
The party demands immediate access to his personal physician and treatment at a specialized hospital.
PTI chairman Gohar Khan filed a petition in the Islamabad High Court to meet Khan, expressing concerns about his health and detention conditions.
