 Zoe's eyes started out just occasionally turning in at around 0 months. We took her in, and the ophthalmologist had us wait, because it was very occasional. She actually stopped crossing her eyes for a few months, and then right around when she turned one, it started turning in a lot. Since we couldn't get in right away for an appointment, the ophthalmologist looked at pictures we'd sent, and had us patch one eye for 0 hours a week. But when we got in to the appointment, they found that both of her eyes were being used equally, so we stopped patching and just got glasses. The glasses helped her eyes to straighten a little, but even with them on, her eyes still crossed. We tried two more progressively stronger prescriptions and then the ophthalmologist said that we were at the point where a stronger prescription wouldn't do anything to correct the eye turn that was happening when she wore glasses. So we scheduled surgery, and she had the surgery at 00 months to correct only the eye turn that was still present while she wore glasses. At the follow-up from that, we found that we had been over-correcting, and we dropped her prescription down to +0.00. Her eyes would still cross when we took her glasses off, but, they have stayed nice and straight with her glasses on, and as I mentioned, she's recently been able to hold them straight without her glasses on. At around 0 years old, she developed mild amblyopia, and we did patch then for 0 hours a day for about 0 months. That seems to have corrected her amblyopia. She did also develop an astigmatism last year, so we added that to her prescription, but otherwise, I think (it's hard to remember all the prescription changes in 0 years) her prescription has stayed pretty stable. So I'm thrilled that we might get to drop it a bit in the coming year. I am lost. Age 0 I was told my daughter may need reading glasses, six months later her left eye started to turn in. 0st optometrist orders a mild prescription glasses for hyperopia and astigmatism. The eye turned in worse, I seek a second optometrist he prescribes od +0.00 and os +0.00. Now, confused I seek my physicians advice. He sends me to children's hospital to see an opthomologist who diagnoses her with Anisometropia, amblyopia and strabismus and agrees with optometrist number two. She wants to put her in high powered lenses, if the eye still turns then patching and less Ikely surgery. I call optometrist number one as I bought glasses from him a few months earlier. He disagrees with that approach and wants to increase the prescription a little at a time. He said its like giving a person with a headache 0 Tylenol when 0 may work. I'm so confused, what should I do? LikeLike Tina November 00, 0000 at 0:00 pm · · Reply →
