We had Kid's first post-op check up this week. The surgeon was THRILLED with the results. Kid (who does often wake up with her left eye turned in) showed great control of her eye and passed all the tests with flying colors.
She was able to get a 20/20 reading with her right eye (with the use of her glasses) but only a 20/30 with her left. She has been losing vision in her left eye over the last year. They ended up dilating her eyes and giving her a full exam. This is obviously time consuming but she was very patient. This was the first exam where she got to have some control over the result (she was able to say if she saw better out of one lens or the other). The result is a new prescription that she CAN see 20/20 with out of both eyes! Yay! It appears that her cataract has changed her astigmatism in her left eye enough that a new prescription was needed... and not that she was losing vision.
So that is that. We are thrilled on both fronts.
