A man was subjected to a "vicious" knife attack and relentless beating which claimed his eye, a court heard. Czeslaw Fraszczak spent weeks in intensive care after he was put in an induced coma over his injuries.
Nottingham Crown Court heard Mr Fraszczak is now blind in his left eye, had fractured bones in his face, cheekbone, jaw and eye socket, to his lower spine. His right eye is blurry, making it difficult for him to see people.
He described being in "complete shock" when he woke up and could not believe he had lost weeks of his life being in hospital. He lost his job as a result of not being able to see and fears he will be unable to work again.
