No more glasses!

one good news after a long low time...

We just had our 2nd eye doctor appointment on last Wednesday..the previous eye doctor is an OTD, but our pediatrician think that OTD is not good enough and request for a second appointment with an eye MD because he is concern if there is any neuro issues with his sight..

The previous diagnosis is that Nathan is +5 far-signed on both eyes and will needs to wear glasses...but since Nathan just absolutely refuse the glasses..and almost never wear it over 30 seconds, we are thinking maybe the prescription is too high and never forced him. ..

This time...the doctor was so different than previous doctor, she is an eye MD specialized for children's vision. She finished the drop within 30 seconds before Nathan even realized what's going on and then she use a little roster pen to attract his attention in order to measure on his eyes' response and focus..all I can say is..wow..what a difference..she is patient and yet so skillful...

According to her, Nathan's problem called "ocular meto apro" and it is kind of neuro issues that just simple come with some babies..but she told us a great news...she said..this problem will just disappear over time as the nerve cell grows more mature, so there is no need for any type of glasses..and she said the previous diagnosis was wrong before the doctor probably simply not familiar with little children..

I am so glad we didn't forced Nathan to keep his glasses on..and even more happy..that even though the money got wasted on the glasses..he doesn't need them after all..We will have another follow up after 4 month and hopefully everything is normal by then. :-)
