In 1973, Shri Nathji cataract developed rapidly in His eyes and the vision in his right eye almost gone. Then Pran Nath in London contacted a certain Dr. Hruby in Vienna who said he would be willing to operate on Shri Nathji at Vienna. In 1975 Priya Nath had been thinking of taking Shri Nathji to Vienna and had even asked a devotee Laj Pat Rai Khanna to get his passport ready to accompany them. Just then the powers of evil struck with deadly suddenness. There was trouble in Shri Nathji’s unattended house, Savitri Nivas, in Mussoorie, So Shri Nathji did not go to Vienna for the operation.
Though Shri Nathji never went to Austria for the surgery.
The Austrian ophthalmologist Dr. Karl B. Hruby is known for his invention of the Hruby lens and for being a pioneer in the use of microsurgical techniques and scleral buckling for retinal detachments.
