Pediatric Ophthalmologist Appointment

Mackenzie had her appointment with the pediatric ophthalmologist today.  Andy and I thought her eye was looking better the past few weeks.  I was hopeful going into the appointment the doctor would say her eye looked fine.  Luckily, my prayers were answered!!  He said he didn't notice her eye turning in at all.  Mackenzie was such a good baby during the appointment.  She had to have her picture taken with a special camera with a bright light, then her eyes were dilated, and finally the doctor did his exam.  She barely cried when the doctor made me hold her hands as he held her head still and used a variety of lenses to look into her eyes.  He said her vision looks good and he didn't see any sign of astigmatism.  The previous eye doctor thought she had astigmatism.  I am glad we went to see this very respected ophthalmologist.  We will still do a follow up visit in 6 months.  We feel very blessed that her eye self corrected over the past few months.
