Lucia was the daughter of a Roman citizen. She is a Christian martyr who is venerated as the saint by Catholic/Orthodox Christians. Lucia is a patron saint of the blind, opticians, electricians, sick children. She is invoked by the Catholics for healing and the visually impaired, sore throats and blindness. She was only 21 years old when she was murdered, the executioner drove a sword through her throat, so she is often depicted with a dagger through her neck.
