I saw this article on UK Daily Mail...
The parents of a new born baby girl have spoken of their heartbreak after she was born without any eyes.
Mother-of-three Danielle Davis, 24, refused a termination when a routine scan showed her baby had a cyst on the brain.
But when Daisy was born, Ms Davis and
her partner Andrew Smith, 31, were told she had the rare disorder
Anophthalmia, meaning she had no eyes.
The condition is incurable, and so while Daisy can be fitted with glass eyes as she gets older, she will never be able to see.
Ms Davis, a care worker from Cwmbran,
South Wales, said: 'It was a shock - we had never heard of it before and
neither had any of our friends or family.
'People didn't really know what to say when we told them.
'But she is our gorgeous baby and we have no regrets about turning down a termination.
'We want to give Daisy as normal a life as possible and give her the same opportunities as other children.'
Anophthalmia is a rare disease in which a baby is born with no eyes.
It develops during pregnancy, and affects around one in 10,000 births in the UK. There is sadly no cure.
Ms Davis said: 'The cyst showed up on the 21-week scan and naturally, we were worried about it.
'But none of the doctors said our baby could be born blind.
'Everyone has been really supportive and I can't thank the doctors and midwives enough for all of their help.'
Daisy, now eight weeks old, is settling in at home with her siblings Logan, six, and Tyler, four.
She will be admitted to the Great Ormond Street Hospital later this month for an operation to fit glass eyes.
They will be replaced when she is 18-months-old with painted eyes that will look more natural.
Her parents are now planning a 12,000 ft skydive to raise funds for the charity RNIB that supports people with sight loss.
The couple also want to raise awareness of the condition.
Ms Davis said: 'I hope that by raising
awareness other parents to be won't experience the same shock that we
did if their child has the condition.'
The news comes after MailOnline reported on the story of baby Richie, who was also born without eyes, in January.
Staff at Arizona's Banner Desert Medical Center initially thought Richie's face was swollen at birth.
But they were stunned to discover the reason his eyelids would not open was because he had anolpthalmia.
Richie’s mother Kelly Lopez, from Mesa,
Arizona, is optimistic that science will progress enough to help Richie
see in his lifetime.
