A Swedish pensioner has miraculously regained her eyesight after spending more than a decade in the dark. There goes her disability check.
But I'm sure she is grateful to be able to see again.

I agree. The article gave no explanation as to why.
BTW, I happened to read of somebody who claims drinking wheat grass juice and taking lutein supplements reversed his cataract - a claim I myself don't believe since this would have bee all over medical news..

I'm no brain expert but this suggests that at least some of the brain tissue damaged by her stroke somehow regenerated or another pathway for the visual signals was developed.

Oh, don’t kid yourself. If there is no money in it for a patented drug, backed by a billion dollar study, it won’t happen.
