My daughter's eyes

I will definitely be praying that this works instead of her having to have surgery. I know it must be very difficult to have to adjust to seeing out of the eye she doesn't have very good vision out of, but maybe this will work for her. Definitely keep us posted on how things go and like i said ,I'll be praying for her. God bless

how old is your daughter? i had the same thing as a kid. but i had to wear the patch for a year, and not take it off (except to sleep)!!! i did end up getting surgery, and afterwards had to wear glasses with one 'foggy' lens on the stronger eye - for quite a long time!!! but eventually it was ok. my eye straightened out, but i think surgery helped because usually they have to go in and fix the muscles which are either too loose or too tight on the eyeball, and that's why it strays. i hope your daughter's condition improves!

i actually have exactly the same eye problem like your daughter... my parents operate my left eye when i am 2 years old... but as i get older, the eye goes back to its slunting position again and the doctor says that this time they have to operate both eyes... my left eye is lazy and practically not working anymore... so i also undergo theraphy every week and have to put patches in my right eye everyday to force my left eye to see again when i am younger... now, because the risk of operating both eyes is high, i don't dare to take the chance... it is better to have a slunting eyes rather than be blind... that's what my parents say as well... so now i have to wear a prism lense glasses to correct my eyes for the rest of my life... but i don't mind at all... i am still grateful that God gives me eyes and i can still see... i will pray for your daughter and hope that she will get better... it is easier to cure the eyes at the younger age... so definitely force her to put on the patches everyday no matter how she dislikes it... it will make her feel giddy and uncomfortable at first based on my experience... but it will get better... good luck...

i feel sorry for your daughter hope she will have a recovery so soon, just let her take more squash it good for the eyesight, this happen to me also my parent worried about my left eye, but thanks god everything is become normal since i have lack of squash vegetables & vit.A

I remember this. when I was 5 I had to wear a patch over my right eye for a feew hours a day. Yes I had lazy eye also. I HATED it!. I also started wearing glasses at that time (when my parents could keep them on me). I still have a slight vision imparement in the lazy eye, but the patch thing did help a lot. My eye continued to improve throughout my school years, and nowI don't have to wear glasses except for reading and driving.

I hope and pray that your daughter's eyesight will straighten out! I have a brother who has a lazy eye. Poor man, couldn't drive his car without his contact lenses and couldn't read without wearing both his contacts and his eyeglasses. Anyway, I hope your daughters treatment turns out well. We'll be waiting to hear from you for great news!

My 5yo daughter goes to the doctor this week to see if she needs a patch to strengthen one of her eyes. She has been wearing glasses since she was 19 months old but at her last visit the doctor said one eye was much weaker then the other. He gave her 3 months to see if her new prescription helped. We'll find out this week. Otherwise she'll be wearing glasses and a patch. Arrrr, you mateys! Lol. (There are going to be a lot of pirate jokes around here if she has to have a patch.)

When my daughter was 3 she was diagnosed with lazy eye. She endured the eye-patching, and the sight eventually returned in her bad eye. It took time and diligence, though. She is 27 now. Last year she had LASIK surgery, and she now has 20/20 vision in both eyes. So stick with it! How old is your daughter?
