- Synopsis
- Inspired by true events, MY EYES is a heartfelt family drama about Alana who has a brief fling with a judo athlete, Nico, who is training for the Paralympics. Not wanting to give up her career and future she had already worked so hard for in Australia, Alana, does not go overseas with him. Nico eventually becomes a fond distant memory and Alana marries Sam. That is, until twelve years later, when their daughter, Isabella, is diagnosed with a rare inherited eye disease that may be treated through stem cell therapy. When it is revealed that Nico is actually Isabella’s true biological father, Alana must convince Nico to come back to Australia and save their daughter's vision without losing everything else she holds dear.
