Berkley Eye Center

Today we took a field trip. My mom and I took the boys to the Berkley Eye Center. It was a specific trip for Caleb and his eyes. I mentioned his eye situation awhile back but basically one eye isn't focusing with the other eye all the time. Our eyes should work together and his don't always. We have been to a local eye dr. a few times and weren't getting answers. So by recommendation of a friend we took quite a trip up to the Berkley Eye Center. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty! Front row parking (literally up to the sparkly glass door entrance) to the welcome committee of our dr. and her intern. They weren't just beyond nice, they were very extensive in their exam. They gave us answers and a diagnosis.

The eye dr. diagnosed Caleb with Exotropia. We will be following up in 6 months. For now, it is very intermittent and we don't need to do anything at the moment. He'll most likely end up doing eye exercises to help his eyes focus and work together. In the future there are more things we can do to help, but for now he is too young to do anything too extreme. I can write more about this once I get the actual description from the dr. since I am recalling from memory right now!I'm just so grateful we have an answer with his eyes!
