One eyed Owen

At Owen's eye appointment on Thursday, they told us that he needs to be patched full-time. Hopefully this is just for 4-6 weeks but it could be 3-4 mos depending on his progress. We go back for an appointment in two weeks to see how it's working. By covering his strong eye, it makes his weak eye work harder and improves the sight. When both eyes are uncovered, his brain just adjusts to the left eye being weaker. This most likely has nothing to do with his bleed. I have the same problem. Same eye even. But, the bleed could make it more difficult to train the bad eye. I, personally, don't think that will have any effect but we shall see.

Notice the tongue?? He's still clicking. (for those who've already read the previous post)
