Good news.... for a change

Ty's eyes are improving 
went to his first appointment at accyvic today, if you remember i went mad at Blackburn and told them they werent going near his eyes again!
So they transferred him to accyvic..
Sooo..... he still has double vision and is getting head aches because of this ( resulting in him taking far too many painkillers for my liking, we dont do medicines lol) and the sun hasnt helped, he still has squints in both eyes, one eye turns in and one eye turns out.. (origianally both turned out) BUT...........(insert drum roll)................his vision has returned to the level it was before the op
yes i do realise it was supposed to improve after the op but no change is better than vision loss, which he has had up to now....
he is booked in for an appointment in 5 weeks to check the double vision and head aches, I have to keep a log of when he gets them and the area in his head they are and he may get some tinted lenses for his specs that should correct the double vision..
I must say that i prefer the new orphoptist, they are usually a bit stuffy and dont appreciate ty's energy and constant questions about what they are doing, what thats for etc... she put all the equipment on the side and let ty play with it, answering all his questions and letting ty test her eyes while she talked to me... they have lolly sticks with small pictures on for the children to focus on while they check the eyes, ty thought it was hilarious to make us go bog eyed with it......

Glad to hear that there has been some improvement.
You must be relieved. I hope it continues. |

i am relieved, i am hoping that it all goes back to how it was before the op, theres not gunna be any actual improvment thurther than that but it would allieviate the guilt i feel at opting for the op.
