A 3-year-old girl named Rylee avoided blindness thanks to a photo her mother shared on Facebook.
Suspicious Glow
Like many proud parents, Tara Taylor posted a picture of her daughter online. Two friends spotted an unusual shine over Rylee's left eye in the photo. Though it might have been the flash, they urged Tara to seek medical advice right away.
Coats' Disease Diagnosis
Rylee saw an ophthalmologist, who diagnosed Coats' disease—a rare condition that demands early detection to prevent permanent vision loss. Quick action from social media vigilance ensured Rylee was treated in time. Tara remains deeply grateful to her insightful Facebook friends.
