Quick trip to Eye Clinic at Sick Kids. We left yesterday after work and headed to Barb & Laurie's. We were on our own, so there was no rush to get there. All was well at their empty house. Summer kept asking where they were. It was pretty funny. I think she really missed seeing them, as did we.
We got on the road into the city at 7:30. We always give ourselves an hour for traffic issues. It is amazing that a 20 minute drive turns into 1-1.5 hours in rush hour. Today it was about 65 minutes.
Eye clinic didn't 'look' busy. We got into see the Orthoptics person quickly. Summer did very well. It is a series of eye tests and patient cooperation is essential. Thankfully, Summer was in the mood to cooperate, mostly.
It took forever to see the Ophthalmologist - our second appointment was for 10:15 and I think we got in there after 11. I was not really watching the clock, since we ran into Jane and Teddy. Teddy is in Summer's class at daycare. Jane is a very down-to-earth woman and is fun to chat with. Teddy has some special needs too, so we share the odd sigh... So, Don entertained Teddy and Summer at the lego table in the waiting room and Jane and I had a little catch up.
So the 45-60 minutes breezed by.
Dr. Tehrani reviewed the Orthoptics report and did an examination on Summer's eyes and concluded that she is 'VERY pleased' with how things are going. She is not changing the prescription for now and we received a 6 month pass. She'll see us again in February.
Couple things to be thankful for: no patching required, no new prescription, no surgery on the visible horizon (no pun intended).
I guess if we are going to get a break here and there, eyesight is a good one.
So glad to hear the empty house is still there and that you missed us! We missed seeing you too! We are currently in Oyen, Alberta - east of Calgary. Sounds like Summer did very well, hope that you get good news re the leg as well.
