Wednesday. We went back to the eye doctor for a check up. They want to see if the eye drops are helping with the swelling.
This awful test is to see how much moisture Riley has in his eyes.
Test outcome... he is as dry as a rock.
And that was a direct quote from the doctors assistant.
After several tests (including the dye in the eyes), it is concluded that the swelling has gone down about 20%. Not enough. Our eye doctor has referred us to a cornea specialist. They are "squeezing" us in on the 15th. Riley's poor eyes were so sensitive after all of the tests and "eye baths", he just closed them on the way home. In fact the doctor said she gives Riley permission to close them as often as he can. "Be the laziest teenager you can!" she said. Riley's eyes are so dry that every time he blinks he is scratching his corneas. :/
