Our Lady of Kazan, healer of eye diseases
and giver of illumination you gave birth to the Savior
Whom Himself gave sight to the blind
and poured light into the darkness,
and so we ask you to look upon us with great pity.
Even though our vision is fading,
we see clearly that you work wonders
for those who love your Redeemer Son
and who hasten to the abundance of your maternal care.
We, therefore, cry aloud with confidence in your compassion
for those who are afflicted with eye diseases.
