Blind woman's honest reaction to husband after operation restored her sight

A blind woman saw her husband for the first time after an operation restored her sight - and was shocked by how 'handsome' he was. Sophia Corah, 24, woke up with poor eyesight in May 2017 and quickly found her vision declining before she was declared legally blind in August 2017.

She was later diagnosed with a condition called keratoconus, where the cornea is unable to hold its round shape. But she didn't let her condition hold her back and she went off to university to study psychology, which is where she met Christian Corah, 25, and the pair instantly hit it off.

They later married and now Sophia, from Reiorancho, New Mexico, US, has had her sight restored by an operation and has seen her husband for the first time - describing him as "just as handsome as I imagined".
