18-year-old Akuot Agany Kur was examined at the Egyptian clinic along the Mudiriya-Juba International Airport road .
She was flown to Juba from Wau twon of Western Bahr el Ghazal on Wednesday where she was initially admitted with the injuries inflicted on her by her father.
According to Doctor Ahmed Mardi who attended Akuot, the teen’s right eyeball is injured, and the retina detached.
