Eye doctor update

Hello all! Hopefully this weather doesn't find you in the dark, the power went out on us last night! It's been very windy, rainy and stormy here, and they are even saying there is a possibility of snow next week. I really hope not, because that equals the worst traffic ever!

I took Payton to her follow-up eye appointment today at OHSU. The doctor said that her vision looks equal in both eyes, which is good. They decided not to dilate her eyes today because he was hesitant to do any intervention with glasses before she was a year old anyway. So we're going back in 3 months; they will dilate her eyes and if it hasn't improved then he will prescribe her glasses. He said that sometimes they see kids 3-6 months later and it seems like they have a pair of brand new eyes, so I'm glad they're giving her eyes a little bit longer to mature. Plus, my vision insurance doesn't kick in until January, so that works for me :) Hopefully the astigmatism will be totally gone too, since her hemangioma is so much smaller. All in all, a very hopeful appointment!

Have a great weekend everyone!
