Eagle eye restored by operation

A golden eagle who was blinded after flying into an electricity pylon has had her vision partially restored by a ground-breaking operation.

Electra the eagle lost her sight when she developed cataracts after flying into the pylon as she tried to escape attack from crows on Mull.

A Glasgow University vet carried out the first cataract operation ever performed on a golden eagle.

The operation restored the sight in one of Electra's eyes.

Golden eagles are famed for their eyesight, which allows them to spot their prey from enormous distances and swoop down with great accuracy.
