So we noticed a while ago that B’s left eye pulls down when he looks to the right – a friend of ours who is a peds eye doctor said that it is likely Brown’s Syndrome. 😦
Basically that just means that he has a short tendon so that he can’t look up and in with that eye. It doesn’t seem to bother him that much although he does tend to tilt his head to the left to compensate.

Good to hear that Browns is somewhat benign in its symptoms. Unless it cause him some distress later on there is no reason to do anything, is there? I enjoyed looking at many other pictures and posts to day. Keep up the good work. We look forward to seeing you all very soon. Love Richard.

Interesting. Glad it is not anything too significant. Never notice that when he is upright, so probably won’t be anything that will cause much problem. However when he gets older, he could take advantage and tell kids that he can do things with his eyes most people can’t, like move his eyes in different directions, one looks up when the other looks down.

He is so adorable. I’m glad you will be able to correct the problem in the future so he’ll be able to see better. (I think there may be mischief lurking behind those blue eyes)
