We were at the hospital on Friday morning for clinic when we were surprised by our daughter and grandson who decided to fly to Auckland for the weekend as a lovely surprise for us. I was so overcome I think I cried! Young Rocky is doing so well, running around and talking flat out. You might notice his right eye is quite dilated in this photograph. This is as a result of chemical eye patching, where drops are put into his good eye, so his left eye has to work a lot harder and hopefully will get stronger. His eye issues are really quite minor and are a result of him being born so prematurely.
such a charming looking young lad. I can empathise on the eye patching front having been through that as a child. Chemical eye patching sounds like an interesting development though, avoiding the stigma of the big sticky eye patch. I hope it works for him.
