Zoey will visit a pediatric opthomologist next week

To confirm my suspicion that she inherited my Strabismus. Early intervention and treatment can help lessen or prevent Amblyopia. I've had a feeling since her birth that Zoey's eyes weren't quite right, however no diagnosis can be made until after 6 months.

Just from a quick exam by the pediatrician it seems as though Zoey's left eye is weaker than the right (opposite from me). So my sweet baby may be getting glasses or need to wear an eye patch.

Notice her eyes not looking the same direction in this picture?


P.S. Zara's eyes are fine, we also watched her like a hawk when she was little. Her optometrist appointment last week showed she has better than average vision and perfect coordination between her eyes.
