An 18-year-old from Wales has become an internet sensation thanks to both her looks and thick skin against bullies who make comments about her left eye. Elley Davies is just like any other teenager – she is studying at college for her beauty therapy qualification and works part-time as a shot girl at a nightclub.
Young, having fun and ambitious – it is not anything out of the ordinary. But after she joined TikTok for a bit of fun, the Pembrokeshire resident has quickly become an internet sensation, the Daily Star reports.
Elley has an ‘eye turn’, also known as strabismus, which has made her about 80% blind in her left eye, with her right side working in overdrive so she can see. After refusing to wear glasses from when she was first diagnosed at the age of four, her turn has progressively gotten more prominent over the years. But, the teen has shown that just because she has a ‘visual insecurity’ it does not mean she cannot be confident and love herself.
