Related Conditions... eyes, tort, spine, plagio

[Guest guest]

Ellen,

saw an eye doctor of some sort. It wasn't really who my specialist

wanted me to see so and the guy was CLUELESS about plagio so it was really a

wasted visit. My specialist wanted me to go to a pediatric specialist, but

insurance wouldn't cover him because he was out-of-network. My specialist

typically has a " vision field neglect " done on all of his plagio patients. He

says that many plagio babies have this condition and that the eval. is often

helpful in getting insurance approval because it shows a medical condition

being related to the plagio.

That's all I know about it!!

Has anyone had any experiences with ophthalmology, orthopedic docs? We

go on fri. to have vision assessed and to an orthopedic dr. to coordinate

care at Children's Hospital of Phila. Amy has a DOC Band and going to PT

at CHOP for torticollis. Are there questions we should be asking these

docs? I've researched plagio. & tort. but feel unprepared to ask the

right things for our appts. to these other specialists.
