The girls had some follow-up eye appointments on June 20th where the doctor decided it was best to start patching Hylie's left eye for two hours every day to strengthen her right eye.
Hylie has been such a trooper about wearing her eye patch. The first few times were very difficult, her vision was extremely blurry and she kept asking to take it off. We kept explaining to Hylie why she had to wear the patch and now, after only a few weeks of patching, she no longer complains about it.
To help make wearing the eye patch a little more fun, Hylie designs her patches. She also came up with the idea of drawing an eye on her patch so it doesn't look like she's wearing an eye patch.
I think I like her designs a lot better than the drawn eyeball approach...
Here's hoping this will help improve her vision!
