Hi everyone,
Just wondering if someone can give me any advice on optic nerve hypoplasia.

My 9 month old daughter has seen a consultant as we were worried about her not focusing faces and not looking when called. The consultant didn't give a diagnosis as such but said the optic nerve looked "featureless ". We were told she needed an MRI to check her brain development and an electrodiagnostic test to assess her vision. Obviously we have been out of our minds with worry since and seem to be getting nowhere in getting these tests booked.
We are praying that her MRI will be fine. Her development in general is fine, which is why we never noticed any problems before. She is crawling, standing up all the time, crawls to toys and plays with them as she should.
They said her vision is (or should be) fine but there is obviously something wrong!
Does anyone have any experience of this? Would appreciate any advice please.

Hello, @Nkd19 - just bobbing on here to let you know that we've shifted this over to the Children's Health topic - hopefully someone will be along soon with advice. Best of luck. Flowers
