jus' got back from the eye doc. i've been 'suspect' for about 20 years .. with my pressures ALWAYS in the low 20's (which makes me 'suspect') i had a ba-jillion different tests done by my opthamologist .. and he said NO GLAUCOMA .. jus' a couple little 'suspicious spots' that they will continue watching (yep! been watching those for those 20 years now!) he said my tests all came out very 'normal'. OH YEAH!!!

Great news, Frannie! My son has glaucoma in his left eye and has to take 2 different drops and have his pressures checked a lot.

heather .. hank has it .. but had some sort of 'lazer' surgery .. and no longer has to take drops. has your son talked to the doc about this procedure? it's probably not for everyone. xo

Thanks, Frannie! I don't think it would work for Tate because he has so many extra blood vessels in and throughout his eye. I've lost track of how many laser surgeries he's had on the birthmark surrounding the eye. I think next week is our 12th or 13th time. I wish Tate didn't have to take the drops. Even with insurance, those things are expensive!
