Eye Update

As you may have noticed in the pictures, we have not been patching Olivia's eye since we returned to Ohio. The Ophthalmologist gave us the 'ok' to stop but we will be surgically correcting her left eye in May. Everything is scheduled and we are happy with the Doctors the Lord assigned us. Please pray that all goes according to plan and that Mommy doesn't worry too much. (Liv, of course, has no idea its coming.) I've said before, if I had been given the choice to select an area of the body on my child to need correction, I think I would have chosen the eyelid. We are so blessed.

Danielle,
We are taking Gabi to her first Pediatric Eye doctor next Tuesday because her strabismus hasn't improved. It's her left eye that lags quite a bit when focusing on long distance objects especially. The Pediatrician has prepared us that the first step will probably be patching. I cannot even imagine trying to get her to keep that on, so any tips you can give me would really be appreciated! :) Thanks!!!
