I need to evaluate local symbols using eval function in Clojure.

(def a 1)
(def b 2)

(let [a 10
      b 20]
  (eval '(+ a b)))
;=> 3

I expected the result to be 30, but the reusult is 3. I want to know the 
reason why Clojure eval function doesn't evaluate the local symbols.

And any alternative to get around?
