Eye Sites….
in the midst of a neurotic mother moment here re Becca’s lazy eye and the fact taht 9 months after the optician said she would get refered to teh hospital for possible patching etc still no news. Found quite a bit of info on the net that made me very cross that she’s BS-ed us about probably only needing specs for 6 months and then all done (no where can I find anyone saying lazy eyes get their act together that fast!) also found quite a bit that said sort it or it could be serious and a lot taht said ultimately it’s gonna be patches.
So, some links to things like funky patches, eye excercises etc so taht I don’t lose them all again!!!
Anissa’s fun patches - shipping to the UK $2 for 4 patches
The Eye Patch Club - loads of info on things to do to make the eye work whilst the patch is on, suggestions for coercing child into having the patch etc, link for the “club” however seems down so no idea about that side of it!
Those weird magic pictures taht I can’t see…. supposed to be good for making eyes work together.
Eye Trainers - had a pair of these years ago and they did a remarkable job of stoping my eyes being tired all the time. They are supposed to be good for making eyes work too
Yoga for eyes - used to do these, cured the headaches I got at school most of the time, just seem to have forgotten about them since….
Eye focusing excercises - worth a try for those of us who look at the PC too much????
Okay, enough already! Now to get hold of the HV and ask if she can refer us to the hosp as the optician doesn’t seem to be able to perform that feat and we’ve effectively “wasted” 9 months already…..
ooh will have a look at these later - thanks!!
