Aaron's Eyes are Fine

I took him to the pediatric ophthalmologist today and it's just pseudo-strabismus and nothing else.  I'm relieved his eyes are fine but am a bit concerned about the return of his head tilt.   So I'm going to contact Aaron's pedi and ask for a script for a re-eval by his physical therapist.

And I don't know HOW he knew the nurse was going to put drops in his eyes, but Aaron did. I had to hold him down and help pry his eyes open. It was crazy.  And he was not very cooperative during the exam. I'm glad that's over with. He's better with shots--less crying. 

So beyond worrying that the spasmodic torticollis has returned, he's completely healthy and his next doctor's visit will be a well visit at 1 year.

    Hurray for his eyes!  I hope his head tilt is just a personality quirk, and not torticollis returning!

    I'm so glad his eyes are fine and am also hoping the head tilt is just something he likes to do and not a return o the torticolis.

    And I'm so sorry for little A having to go through all that to get the drops into his eyes. Sorry for you too.

    Here's to an awesome 12 month appointment!

    Maybe he knows how cute the head tilt looks in photos?

    Seriously, it is glad to hear that Aaron's eyes are good.  Hopefully you can get him checked by the PT and all will be well.
