Intermittent squint

We've been increasingly concerned about Nadine's eyes, which keep showing a squint, especially when she's tired. So we decided to bring her to the ophthalmologist again. This time, the clinic scheduled us to see a paediatrician ophthalmologist.

Poor girl had to endure some eye drops to relax her eye muscles, and she was allergic to one of the eye drops! Her left eye was super swollen after the eye drops, and she was of course, super upset and cranky.


And it was confirmed that she has an intermittent squint, but not bad enough to require glasses. The ophthalmologist taught us a set of eye exercise to do with Nadine every day, to train her eye muscles. We'll have to go back again in 3 months' time to see if the condition has improved. If the condition does not eventually improve, she may require surgery. Poor baby! We certainly pray she'll not have to go through surgery!
