Schoolboy who was going blind can now see thanks to life-changing eye surgery

A schoolboy who was going blind can now see thanks to life-changing eye surgery.

Mamadou, seven, was born with bilateral cataracts - which would eventually leave him blind.

The schoolboy, from Waterloo, Western Area, Sierra Leone, struggled to walk because he would trip over objects and he couldn't see well enough to read or write.

In the UK, babies born with cataracts would have been operated on at six weeks old.
