We have been patching, changing glasses, doing vision therapy, etc., for over two years. The doctors finally decided surgery was our best option to straighten up Amelia's eyes. We are hopeful that by straightening her eyes, her brain will begin processing the visual input better than it currently does. Right now, each eye can see, but one sees much better than the other, and they don't work well together. It will be a few weeks before we can tell if there is any change in her prescription. Either way, her eyes will now at least appear straight. She did SOOO well with surgery this time. She was apprehensive, but in the end, she walked on her own two feet to the surgical suite, hand-in-hand with the anesthesiologist! After last time, this was more than I even had hoped for. Thank you, Lord, for sending us such a warm and kind doctor.
Hope she is doing well. My sister had this some surgery as a child.
