We had a meeting with the PO today and he is quite concerned that William's operated eye is becoming dominant. It was decided that we would not patch him to encourage his good eye to become dominant again. If that doesn’t work then we might have to patch his operated eye to force the good eye to become dominant. I don’t think our PO has seen a case like this before! I guess it is good in one regard because William can obviously see out of the operated eye but we don’t want him to become dominant in that eye because William's good eye is far superior to a eye with a imitation lens! We also talked about eye alignment surgery which Dr Maslin doesn't want to do until William is about 18 months old. I hate the thought of William going for another surgery but it's something that we'll definitely have to consider. The surgery would be for cosmetic purposes only.
