A bit of a internet rummage doesn't seem to reveal any source for it that isn't a direct quote from the Sun. The Sun's not exactly a reliable news outlet.
I'm not backing the story by any means. Just presenting it as-is. Take it or leave it sort of thing.
The story says something about this kids eyes acting like a cats (built to let in more light then our eyes). But then they say things like "he can read perfectly fine in a pitch-black room." And, well, I thought cats-eyes didn't even work in pitch-black? That is, they just are able to see in
less light than we can... but not
no light.
Then again, I don't really know much about cats or eyesight, so... meh.
