Hi
I'm hoping someone on here will be able to help me. I have a 13 month old DS who has limited vision in his right eye due to an hemangioma (birthmark). We need to patch his good eye 3 times a day for 1 hour each time.
Our orthoptist gave us stick on eye patches which he hates and just rips off. He will not tolerate them for a second, to be honest they never stick well anyway, and I am looking for an alternative patch that maybe I can tie on or something?!
I was wondering if anyone else had experienced the same problem and could maybe suggest something clever/inventive or an alternative product. I have searched the net and only found products sold in the States or plastic play pirate patches which will be too big for his eye.
His eye sight is diminishing so I need a solution quick!
Thanks
