When my ds3 was born we noticed that he was very late to open his eyes, especially his right eye. As the weeks passed, it was aparrent that his right lid was lower than the other. there wasn't much evidence of a crease. Also, when he looked up his lid didn't move up.
He has seen an eye specialist who said that cosmetically, he could have sugery when he is at least 4 to correct it. At the moment, I am keen for him to have it if necessary,as I worry about him being bullied at school for looking a bit different.
Does anybody elses baby/child have it or had surgery to correct it?
