Miss Molly!!!!

Molly had her eye doctor re-check appointment yesterday morning. The dialated her eyes AGAIN and found out the she is far-sighted (she is taking after Brian's side again as Grandma Pat got glasses when she was 3 yrs. old because she is far-sighted). Molly had failed three tests at the doctors office so they referred us to an eye doctor. I took her to Fuerste Eye Clinic six months ago and they couldn't tell for sure and didn't want to dialate her eyes anymore at that visit.....so they scheduled this re-check six months later. Yesterday it showed that she is a +7 in her right eye and a +3 in her left eye. The doctor is concerned about the big variance, so I am taking her back in one month for one last re-check! I have some special ointment dialation gel that I will put in her eyes the night before her appointment and the morning of her appointment to make sure her eyes are really dialated good.....and then we'll see what the doctor says......it looks like Miss Molly will most likely be wearing glasses by her 2nd birthday! The doctor says if the variation in her eyes still looks the same....there is a chance she could get a lazy eye.....as she is seeing a different picture out of each of her eyes.....so it's important to dialate one more time before getting glasses.

On our way home......Molly fell asleep in the car with sunglasses on and her blanket over her head! Of course....it was a really sunny day!
Sleepy Molly.....getting her eyes checked is hard work!
