AW: Please look at my baby

[Deleted]

...and tell me , does he look crosseyed to you? In real time it's not something I've really noticed but in many of his pictures I can see it. I meant to ask about this at his six month appointment and completely forgot. So, you know, rely on internet experts instead. I dont know much about cross eyes or infant opthomology. If i have concerns, can that wait until his nine month or would you make an appointment to take him back in sooner? How young can they treat it if he does have it?

If he is, it's very slight. I don't see a problem with calling the pedi and letting them know it's a new concern and if they want to see him sooner or later.

I think in this picture* it looks like his left (on the right side of the picture) looks like it could be a bit lazy...but I'm not sure exactly when that is an "issue" as far as growth/development? I'd probably call the pedi just to check in and see what they suggest re: appt now or waiting until 9m well check.

I have a slight lazy eye. Only noticeable in some pictures or when I'm extra tired. But could just be the way he is looking. But he's cute either way! Lol

Isn't nchauhan an ophthalmologist? Has she been on in a while though?

Yes! I knew we had someone. I was just forgetting who.

Maybe this would be an option to ease your mind? We plan to schedule sometime this month.

nchauhan??

I was just remembering her and wondering why she hasn't posted in a while...

we talked to our ped about it because my boyfriend needed glasses at 2 years old. our ped said most babies eyes are kind of drifty or wonky looking at times and most of the time they grow out of it and both eyes will focus and look/be fine. but that it's something that around 2 they'd say see an eye doctor if it still looks severe or the baby seems like it's having trouble with sight.

but your son looks fine! i think sometimes my son just goes cross eyed trying to look at my phone/camera or it's the angle.
