If you watch one thing on the internet today, make sure it is this particular viral video from 2018.
While the rather special moment may have happened some five years ago now, it has recently resurfaced on Reddit. Watch it below:
It sees a man called Anthony able to see for the first time in 38 years thanks to the use of electronic glasses produced by the company eSight.

The incredible glasses let those who are legally blind able to see, and Anthony's reaction to seeing for the first time in nearly four decades is very heartwarming.
After equipping the glasses, Anthony reads a bunch of words off the wall in front of him, from what must be at least ten feet away.
And he is not struggling to read them either, quickly listing all of the words on the wall.
Remarkably, Anthony then turns to his partner, as he admits he's seeing in the flesh for the very first time.

"She's beautiful to me - I almost don't have the right words," he admitted.
Anthony then requests to see his mother, so he subsequently finds one of her on his mobile phone.
He was certainly full of less words as he saw his mom, simply saying 'OMG' as he looked down on his phone.

The glasses also allow Anthony to see the fine details of his face, and it is safe to say he is left in shock just a little.
As he is literally pulling part of his facial hair off his beard, Anthony repeats 'I can see that' as he comes to the realization he can actually see for the first time in 38 years.
A member of the camera crew jokes he looks like Idris Elba, with Anthony admitting people have told him that in the past.
"I just don't have his money, trust me, he jokingly added.

One of the more heartwarming mementos of the clip shows Anthony watching his first ever football match, leaving the die-hard fan speechless.
Fans of any sport will know how powerful it can be, so this moment is well and truly special.
Since being re-shared on Reddit in recent hours, many have had to grab the tissues after watching the emotional moment.

"That’s pretty damn cool," one person in the comments section penned.
While a second added: "Simple pleasures. Glad he didn’t break up with his girlfriend."
