A Polish man, who was blind for over two decades, isreportedly able to see again after he was hit by a car.

Local media said that Janusz Goraj from Gorzw Wielkopolskiin Poland was able to see properly two weeks after being involved in anaccident.

Janusz suffered from an allergic reaction that damaged theretina in his right eye. His left eye could only register shapes and light.

During an interview with Polsat News, Janusz said that hissight has been perfect after he was hit by a car while crossing the road in2018.

I fell on the car bonnet, hit my head and then I slippedand fell on the road, Janusz said.

Following the accident Janusz was taken to the IndependentPublic Provincial Hospital for hip surgery.

At a certain age such fractures dont heal so quickly, sohe had to be hospitalised, hospital spokesperson Agnieszka Wisniewska said.

At that time, doctors werent concerned about his visionbecause of his injuries.

Within two weeks his injuries had mostly mended with theadded bonus of his eyesight miraculously returning.

Janusz vision has been restored to such an extent that hedoesnt even need to wear his old glasses anymore.

Doctors were stunned by the incident, but they can now onlyspeculate as to what the reason behind his recovery is as Janusz declined totake part in further tests.

We dont quite know what caused it. Maybe it was the mixof drugs he was getting during that time, Wisniewska said.

One theory is that the large doses of anticoagulants (medicinethat helps prevent blood clots) mixed with his other medicine couldve helpedwith the patients unexpected eyesight return.

Incredibly Janusz is now able to live an independent lifeagain. He even got a job as a security guard at the same hospital where hissight came back.

We dont know if he specifically asked for the job or ifits just a coincidence, but he is working here with us, Wisniewska confirmed.
