Thanks E — I’m hopeful that at Charlie’s next appointment we’ll see significant improvement. Congratulations on your son’s progress!

I’m late commenting on this post — I’ve actually just found your site and was doing some reading to catch up — but I wanted to say that my 8 year old son wears a patch for 8 hours a day now. So I know your pain. His vision was so bad in his one eye that it was declared legally blind. But now it’s improved to 20/40 (with a contact lens. without the contact it’s still pretty bad.) And at his next eye appointment we fully expect it to be even better. SO keep up with the patches! And video games are good exercise for his bad eye — the more details, the better, too.

Oh no. I have no advice on ponies, but wanted to how much I think that sucks and I'll be thinking of you and your little one. Queen of Shake Shake's latest post: I Think I Just Renounced My American Citizenship

Screw the pony, get that boy a unicorn! Seven hours? That sucks!

I’m not helping am I? Sorry. Hang in there. He’ll enjoy the extra spoiling and it’ll be worth it when his eye gets better!

I hope that he doesn't have to wear the patch for that many hours for an extended length of time! I had a student this past year in my first grade class that actually had his eye dilated each day instead of wearing the patch. First time I'd heard of that approach!
