Teenager Alanna Quinn Idris faces a month-long recovery after undergoing her first reconstructive surgery to repair her eye socket and cheekbone.
The 17-year-old suffered serious facial injuries in an alleged assault on December 30 including a ruptured eyeball, broken cheekbone and a shattered tooth.
Her mum Jamie told the Irish Sunday Mirror how the teen spent four nights in Dublin’s St James’s Hospital this week but is now home recovering following a lengthy surgery on Tuesday.
