Eye Exam


Stella has had a clogged tear duct since she was born, that causes clear water to drain from her eye and sometimes nasty "gook" too. Today we visited the eye doctor for the first time to see what needs to be done. She had her eyes dilated followed by an eye exam. The doctor confirmed that it was a clogged duct and advised us to continue massaging the corner of the eye whenever possible. This is a little hard to do now when Stella is awake since she likes to "bat" at your hand if it's close to her face! :) So, I've found the best time to do it is when she's asleep!
I just had to take a picture of her and Daddy sitting in "the chair" as we were waiting. She was a great sport...even when the nurse had to put 3 drops in each eye.
Say a prayer that this will clear up on it's own so that a procedure won't have to be done that requires sedation.
