Mum's bid to buy Myah a new eye

Two-year-old Myah was born with a rare genetic condition called micropthamia, small eye syndrome, which meant her right eye never developed and she was born without one.

She has been through major surgery over the past two years to expand the socket so her face would not be misshapen.

However, her current false eye is now too small and is constantly giving Myah infections.

Mum Lauren Burrows, who runs Myah’s Beautique beauty salon on Portland Street, Mansfield Woodhouse, said: “Myah really needs a new prosthetic eye as she grows and her current one is making her poorly all the time.

“ There’s been lots of trips to A&E at hospital because I can’t get her temperature down.”
