A little girl has been left blind in one eye after an horrific freak accident involving her scooter. She was walking to nursery school with her mum when it happened.
Amanda Allan, 39, a mum of three, was walking with four-year-old Coral scooting alongside her on June 23 when Coral crashed. As she did, the end of the scooter's handlebars jabbed into her left eye.
Amanda said it didn't appear too severe at first. There was no bleeding, she said, and Coral wasn't in pain. However, her eye looked swollen, so they went home and Amanda kept an eye on her little girl.
