relief.

Yay!!!! We went to the doctor this morning for baby's eye. We left relieved. It wasn't that she told us particulary good news, but she definitely didn't tell us bad news, either.

The doctor said that Carson is far sighted in his left eye, causing it to turn inward when he is trying to focus on things close to his face. It is not an optic nerve issue, meaning that I did not give him this. I cried when she told me. I was so relieved. The structure of his eye is great and his issue most likely won't require surgery. He will probably need glasses as a child for focusing on things close to him, like reading. He will probably grow out of it. For now, we are supposed to patch his good eye for 1-2 hours a day and go back in 3 months for a check up. She was also very encouraging about us catching it early. Thanks for the prayers and concern! I will definitely be able to sleep much better tonight!
