A New Zealand woman, who had no vision since she was 11, had her sight restored one night when she hit her head on a coffee table. Lisa Reid, from Auckland, has a tumour pressing down on her optic nerve and in 2000 she was not able to see at all. But on the night of November 15, 2000, that all changed when Ms Reid - who was 24 at the time - crouched down to kiss her guide dog at the time, Ami, goodnight and accidentally knocked her head on her coffee table.
The next morning, she woke up and some of her vision had been restored.
'Nobody knows what happened or can explain it,' Ms Reid, now 38, told Daily Mail Australia.
'I can't really find words to describe how it felt - amazing, fantastic.
'You can imagine not being able to see and then you can, you can't really describe that.
'To see the world again visually is a gift.'
To help her cope with her visual impairment, Ms Reid has been supported by New Zealand's Blind Foundation and said without them she would be 'lost without them'.
Every year the foundation hosts Blind Week - which started on October 29 this year and will run until November 3.

Wow, what a miracle! So happy for her.

This happened 14 years ago.

Next we'll be seeing threads about how the Jews were saved from Auschwitz.

Moral of the story : Trip the next blind person you see, they may get their sight back.

I wonder how many blind people tried knocking their heads against coffee tables after hearing about this...
