Opthamologist

Yesterday we went and saw a Pediatric Opthamologist, Dr. Groves. Kayden has had a blocked tear duct in his left eye since birth, which is very common. Our regular pediatrician said it would most likely clear up on its own. Well at our 4 month checkup she noticed that it was still goo'ing up pretty good and that his left eye lid was a little droopy. So she referred us to Dr. Groves just to get it all checked out.
Our original appointment with him was in late October, however we asked to be put on the waiting list just incase....and yesterday at noon they called for an opening at 3p! Guess we're making a trip to Tulsa!

Dr. Groves was wonderful!! They dialted Kayden's eyes, and Dr. Groves did a full eye exam. He said Kayden has extremely healthy eyes. The droopyness of the eye lid he said should most likely take care of its self, so no worries there. If it becomes a problem we will talk, but that would include surgery. No thank you!
As for the blocked tear duct, he said he could perform a simple procedure in office and pop the membrane that is blocking the tear duct. We went ahead and had him do the procedure (Brett and I both left the room....hahahaha). Kayden did fabulous!! Dr. Groves said he has a 75% success rate with this procedure, so we are hopeful that it worked. It already looked better this morning! And Kayden was back to his normal self after a nap on the car ride home!!

And the picture of the day.......

There's a new sherrif in town! (I think Brett may be out of a job!)
