Eyes - 3 years

So Gabrielle went in for her eye check-up last week and it went really well.  A year made quite a difference in how they were able to test her eyes.  They started by having her look into this machine that estimates her deficit (I think).  They tried having her verbalize what these strange black and white pictures were, which didn't go the best.  Then they had her hold a card with all the pictures on it and point to the picture that she saw far away.  That went much better and she did great.  They did that covering one of her eyes and they also did it with difference lenses held up to her eyes.  They had her put her face/chin up to the big contraption to look at her eyes (I feel very dumb that I have no idea what this stuff is called).  The doctor was very happy with all that Gabs could tell them and was happy with what the test revealed so she didn't even need to dilate her eyes.  She said Gabs eyes may have improved a little bit from last year but was happy to just keep her in her current glasses.  With the stabilization/progress she saw she said it could even be a possibility that Gabrielle may not need glasses by the time she is 12 or it may just be a minor prescription.  No matter what though, her eyes look healthy and with her glasses her vision is perfect.  She doesn't need a check-up for a whole year when she turns four......so baby brother will be in for his check before Gabrielle goes back.  Crazy!
