Izabelle Evans, who was born with septo-optic dysplasia, a condition that affects five in one million babies, can now see objects that are up to 3 feet away after the £50,000 treatment.
Her parents James Evans and Hollie McHugh raised the money in just over a year after finding out about the procedure online.
The family spent over a month in the Chinese city of Tsingtao where Izabelle frequently became upset as she endured the gruelling five-days-a-week treatment.
However, since returning to Hayling Island, Hants, Izabelle's parents have been delighted with the results.
Miss McHugh said: "We thought that if it did work it may be a bit of light perception but for her to be able to tell the difference between faces and objects has been amazing."
