Eye Appointment

This morning, we had Brychan's 3rd eye appointment. He ran right into the room and crawled up into his chair so he could tell the nurse what images he saw on the screen and then watch a bit of Finding Nemo. No problem...he was a great patient as always!

This is after we got home from the appointment. If you look really close, you can see a gigantic tear under his right eye. The doctor said his eyes are doing great and looking good, but felt that patching would help even more. So, for two hours a day for the next 3 months, this is what we'll be doing. Probably sitting in front of a movie for most of the time until Brychan gets use to it.
When we got home, we put the patch on and he sat down with Daddy to watch tv, so I thought all was well. The next thing I hear is a terrified little boy screaming for mommy as he's running through the house looking for me. So that huge tear on his cheek? Matches the one on mommy's. I think the patching will be really beneficial for him; I just hate to see him so scared and uncomfortable. It will be interesting to see what kind of progress he makes in the next 3 months!

*Kehlton will probably have his first eye appointment in the next 2 or 3 months as well, just to be sure. Since Brychan has problems, Kehlton has a higher risk of having the same problems. The earlier it's caught, the easier the correction!
