Dancing through the hospital ward

Joe Ayling

For those who haven’t seen it already there is an inspirational video doing the rounds on social media today.

It shows the moment that a 69-year old patient from Malawi had his sight restored by a surgeon in the country’s first ever live cataract operation.

The event, also featured in today’s edition of Optician, certainly brought a smile to Winesi’s face, particularly when able to see his wife’s face clearly for the first time in more than a decade.

Indeed, it was even deemed worthy of a dance and will do much to increase awareness of World Sight Day. Watch the video here
