Last week Ethan had a follow-up eye exam, he has to go to the eye doctor every 3 months so they can keep an eye on his eye=) Well everything is still the same, his eyes are working together, his prescription is the same, but his right eye, the one with Ambliopia (Lazy Eye), is still being really lazy. If you hold an object in front of him, he will turn his head to look at it with his left eye (the good one), instead of trying to focus correctly with his right eye (the bad one). Ethan will have to wear an eye patch for 2 hours every day for the next three months.
He has been doing really good. We are very proud of him.
The first day I had put the patch on him in the car and Merci proceeded to tell me that everything was ruined because Ethan wasn't cute anymore and now everyone was going to stare at him! It was kind of cute, but I still think he is a cutie pie, even thought I
am a little biased=)

That's great that they make those patches with cool prints on them! :) He looks like he's enjoying that bomb pop, too!
of course he's a cutie pie!!!!!
I looked at the "popsicle" picture and I wondered "Where did his other eye go?"
He looks cute! Hey, at least he only has to wear it 2 hours a day.
I think he is still cute! I am excited that he only has to wear the patch 2 hours a day.
Tell Merci that beauty comes from within and that where there is love there is beauty, no matter what the outside of the "package" looks like. It is good to learn while we are still young that we aren't to judge based on how others look.
