DJ's visit to the ophthalmologist

Currently, DJ and I are in the waiting room of the ophthalmology clinic, waiting for DJ's eyes to dilate. Frankly, this half hour is a welcome break from what we just went through, at no fault of the doctor's!!!

Dr. Collins did the red/green test, depth perception, and a crossing test. She also had DJ match letters on a page. Then she covered his left eye, and started showing him letters on an LCD screen at different sizes to try and figure out if he is near or far sighted.

He was perfect with his right eye, but struggled with his left, resulting in an initial read of 20/40. But he fought us REALLY hard throughout this process. He was screaming NO and and squirming out of my arms... Took way longer than it should have.

And if he was fighting that, imagine how much he fought us when we put he dilation drops in.... Oy.

And now we wait to see what will happen next.
