Matilda Farley was diagnosed after a strange glint was spotted in her eye when she was a baby Pic: Cancer Research UKFour-year-old Matilda Farley was diagnosed at 10 months after a glow in her left eye was noticed in photographs.
Beth, who works as a nail technician, said: “I had taken some pictures one day and there was this glow on her left eye that looked different to her other eye, and it just didn’t look right. I took her to the doctors, and they examined her, but they couldn’t see anything. It wasn’t until her eight-month routine check-up when I mentioned it again that she was then referred to a specialist.”
