Hi Jen, as far as I know if the vision of the eyes are not impaired the operation can be left to about 4-5. That was in our case anyway. Just keep doing what your doing, your doing excellent.

I LOVE DR MAHER ! :-) she has done all my kids surgeries. She is tryuly caring, thinking of what is best for each and every child, always thinking ahead, she makes sure scares are as minimal as possible and takes their feelings into everything she does. I had to call her last week at 2 30 am ...she called back in 6 minutes...and spent almost 1/2 hr on the phone with me. Tommy scratched his cornea again due to dry eyes of course that was the night we forgot to put the gelin. ugggg ! Just wanted to say how awesome I think she is. The staff at Ny Eye and ear has been exactly the same people for 14 years ! I know them all personally ...If you mention my kids on the floor they all can tell you they know them. They truly care. Awesome people.Sharon rainamint@... wrote: Hello Jen I live in NYC and my son

My thoughts on Dr Maher are the same as yours. Where do you and your family live?

Iwould love to get together some time with anyone in this area. Aedan just recently said the first negative thing about his eyes and i feel it would help him to see he is not alone.

Hi all,

This is Gemma, in Madrid.

You mentioned " the gelin " ... is there any ointment to put in the

eyes? My son (6 monts) does not make any teardrops, so he usually

gots lots of (my God I don't know the name in English)mucous and

white things in the eyes, and of course his eyes are very dry all the

time mainly during the night.

Could anybody recommend any ointment, I would appreciate the name and

the laboratory who makes it (just in case in Spain the commercial

name is different)

Thanks and regards from the sunny Madrid.

Gemma
