A 15-year-old girl is "scared she will wake up one day and not be able to see" because of a condition that doctors have struggled to diagnose.
Lauren Williams has seen her vision deteriorate at an alarming rate. The problem, which started five years ago with a slight squint and headaches, now means the schoolgirl struggles to see more than six metres in front of her, and can no longer read things like food labels.
Lauren's Mum, Stacey Conway, took her daughter to see an optician in 2017 after a squint had "come out of the blue." The following tests then led to concerns there'd been a pressure build-up around Lauren's brain. However, five years later there has still been no diagnosis, and experts have warned Stacey that her daughter could soon be registered blind.
