MarIon's Young Lady Blind 29 Years bui
Now Sees.

Asheville, Nov. 23. 3.-After
cropping her way through
darkness for 80 years, Miss
Leila Cameron, a young
woman of Marion, is able to
see for the first time in her
life, thanks to an operation
performed on her today by
DR.. E. Reid Russell, a for
mer Charlotte physician.
Miss Cameron came to
Asheville yesterday, and the
first operation, on her left
eye was performed then. Sic
was able to see at the con>
clusion of that operation, and
today she had the second
operation on her right eye,
completely giving her sight.
The cause Of Miss Camerons
blindness was an opaque SUBJ
stance which filled the pupils
of her eyes and did not allow
the transmission OF light to
the inner eye. The operation
consisted in cutting through
this substance, = making a
"window" through which the
rays of light could reach the
inner eye, and virtually fur"
nishing an artificial pupil for
the eye,
For a few minutes after
gaining her sight, it was
again endangered by the
emotions to which Miss
Cameron gave way when she
found that she could really
see. She is a very fine musi>
clan, and despite her troubles,
had been teaching music at
Marion. All her relatives,
with the exception of one,
were opposed to her consult
ing a specialist and this one
brought her to Asheville,
where the operation was sue
