Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Hi everyoneMay I ask that when you reply, you say the age of the person, the year it was done, and supply more details (ie material used, severity of condition).We have to be careful that a newcomer to our site may read these replies, they may not know some of the background, and they may be alarmed (perhaps that they see so many differing replies, or that they hear about repeat treatment). I know that Ann’s question is about the number of slings RIGHT NOW (not “ever had”). But inevitably people expand on an answer.We have a wonderful group, with a wealth of knowledge and an extensive support network. So – really important to supply complete details JTake careShireenLondon, England From: blepharophimosis [mailto:blepharophimosis ] On Behalf Of AnnSent: 07 February 2011 08:13blepharophimosis Subject: blepharophimosis How many slings? I am curious to know how many slings you and/or your children have in the eyes. I'm not asking how many you have ever had, but how many you or your child have right now. I've talked to several people, and I don't think I've come across anyone who has 2 in each eye, like Catalina does. I'm just curious if there is anyone else out there with 2 in each eye.Ann, Mama of Catalina (age 3)Denver Colorado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 My daughter has 2 slings in each eye. one sling lifts the inside of the lid the other sling the outside.
