I am a bit behind, Frankie had his eye checkup in the beginning of December. His vision with the teller cards, seemed to be at 20/60. They tried to get him to see the distance pictures, but he could not see them well enough to identify them. He did say a spider monkey, though, that was too funny! He also looked at pictures up close and could name some of them. The phone from the 1970's he had no clue what is was because he never saw one before!
His eyes are crossing more, each one takes a turn and he uses one at a time. So he is going to get glasses, they should be ready for pickup soon! We got ones with sunglasses that clip on. Then the doctor will stick on prisms that will blur part of his vision to get the eyes to go back to where they should be. After a few weeks, we will go back again and the doctor can see if the strabismus improved, which will aid in surgery. So he will probably end up with surgery towards the end of February. I am nervous about it!
We went to Lizzy' doctor for a second opinion, more on that in another post. Frankie is very excited about the glasses!
