Yesterday we had to take Joey for his eye doctor appointment. Since they do not do those kinds of things on base, our pediatrician gave us a referral to go to see a doctor at Jules Stein Eye Institute at UCLA. It is about a 90 mile drive that can take hours because of the Los Angeles traffic.
Our appointment was at 1:45. By the time we got called in to see the doctor, it was after 3. She didn't think that Joey's eyes cross but she did notice that he prefers his left eye over his right eye. Then they dialated his eyes and checked to see if glasses would help. This made me sad, because although little kids that wear glasses are so cute, I don't want my Joey wearing glasses yet! In the end, the doctor said that right now we shouldn't worry but she would like to see Joey in 2 months to see if anything has changed.
We finally got done with our appointment around 4:30. Thankfully we have a GPS because when we got to the 405, we saw the horrible traffic and took a detour. We still sat in some traffic, but it wasn't close to as bad as it could have been!

Wow, eye institute at UCLA. What a difference a year makes. Wonder where you would have been sent in North Dakota:-) Glad you had a good report.
