Sept. 24, 2009

It is one week past our son's eyelid surgery. He is doing excellent. He hardly seems phased by the change. His swelling is almost completely gone. We’ve been diligent about keeping his eye moist, and so far, there seem to be no issues with dryness. He falls asleep and his left eye stays open (which is a little freaky), but it doesn’t seem to bother him a bit. All in all, he is doing great and we are thrilled and relieved. The result of the “sling” is most noticeable when Lane looks down because his right eyelid partially closes as his right eye rolls down to look down, but his left lid stays wide open, while the left eye rolls downward. That is when things look a little odd, but if that’s the worst of it – we’ll take it!
