The High Court allowed the appeal in part because the trial judge failed to properly consider and weigh the expert medical reports demonstrating permanent deficits and ongoing treatment needs, and erred in rejecting future losses and certain special damages on speculative grounds and on unsupported assumptions about availability of equivalent public services; accordingly the court revised quantum and awarded specific sums for future loss, ophthalmic care, future medications and equipment/treatment while upholding the trial judge's rejection of counselling costs.
