I haven’t done an update on Alivia’s Intermittent Exotropia for quite some time, so I thought I’d share the latest with all of you today.
Since I was sick, my husband took her to the last Ophthalmologist appointment. Before I go into what she said, let me catch you up with what’s been going on. As a reminder, you can read all my Intermittent Exotropia posts here to catch up.
I’d been patching Alivia’s eye for two hours a night and keeping a close watch on her deviation. For months, the hubby and I didn't see it deviate much, so we decided to discontinue the eye exercises. She was doing good for awhile. Then, out of the blue, we started seeing it again. Mostly when she was in her car seat, looking out the front of the car through the windshield to the outside. At those times, we’d ask her to bring her eye in. Over time, she became a pro at bringing her eye in demonstrating impressive control over it which made us very happy. Happy for us and her!
