XP: PIP AW DD1 got glasses..

I posted a couple weeks ago about DD1's eyes seeming "off" to me. I was right. She has a wandering eye and needs glasses. We picked them up today and she's surprisingly doing pretty well with wearing them...though it's only been about an hour!

    I had a wandering eye as a kid.  I had to wear a patch for about 6 weeks to strengthen the eye muscle.  They don't do that anymore?  That's great that glasses are enough.  She is adorable in the glasses!
    3 IUI's and 2 IVF's later- Brady arrived. Born at 36 weeks after PUPPS and pre-e/HELLP.
    IUI- BFN IVF #1 -BFP! Allie is our 2nd IVF baby. Born at 36 1/2 weeks after pre-e again

    My DD's eye was like this and OPs.  They first tried fixing the eye with glasses and said that if it didn't improve, they would have to patch the good eye.  For us, the glasses did the trick and there was no need for the patch!

    Oh she's so cute!  I love kids in glasses.

    My husband's nephew had a wandering eye and was eventually put into a patch, so they still do it, but I suppose it's based upon the specific case.  I don't know if they tried glasses and weren't successful or went striaght to the patch.

    SOOOO cute!

     And I can tell from the pic that they're not slowing her down a bit, huh?  hee hee

     

    Another Mom of a glasses wearer here too.

    Hope the transition goes smoothly for you!

    If you end up needing to patch lemme know - we found a GREAT patch that works much better than the sticky kind.

    (Jace doesn't have a lazy eye but has one with much better vision than the other so we patched the better eye to let the worse eye develop more)

     

    Our IF journey: 1 m/c, 1 IVF with only 3 eggs retrieved yielding Dylan and a lost twin, 1 shocker unmedicated BFP resulting in Jace, 3 more unmedicated pregnancies ending in more losses.
    Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.

    Thanks everyone :)

    Yep, patching is still an option... they said our options were glasses, patching, surgery, or eye therapy (like physical therapy for the eye). With DD, we caught it early and it's not too bad so they're hoping the glasses will work for her. We go back in 3 weeks to see how it's going.

    howleyshell, thanks! If DD ends up needing a patch, I'll definitely ask you about that site! I have a feeling patching would be a major fight with her :/
