At the beginning of May, we had to take Grant to the eye doctor to get his blocked tear duct checked out. He has had a blocked tear duct since he was born, but we haven't been able to fix it ourselves with massage, so our pediatrician wanted us to take Grant to a pediatric ophthalmologist to get it checked out. In order to check his eyes completely, Grant had to have his eyes dilated. He did pretty well with his eyes dilated, but you could tell he didn't understand why his vision was different, and he was sensitive to light for about 24 hours.
We have been doing the updated massage since then in the hopes that we can get the issue fixed on our own. However, the doctor only gave us a month (until the beginning of June) to work on it because she has good luck probing the tear ducts to unblock it without having to put the kids under general anesthesia, but only if it is done before they are one.
