Eye Spy Caroline

I took Caroline to the Pediatric Opthamologist today so the doctor could take a look at her eyes. Dr. Salevitz said that he didn't necessarily agree with the blepharitis diagnosis, but said that it was probably a good idea that I had been giving her the eye drops.

That will involve general anesthetic and a 2-5 minute procedure per side. It is common for newborns/infants to have glogged tear ducts, but they have a "very, very, very good chance" to open on their own. So, I take her back in 3 months to have Dr. Salevitz look at her eyes to see if the ducts have opened. Here's to hoping they do............
