Re: Eye Trouble with Helmet?

That first photo of is absolutely priceless! She does indeed look

like she's giving you the evil eye, and even looks as if she's

laughing evilly too. Too precious!

Cuteness aside though, it does look like an adjustment is needed. It

should not press down on her eye like that. I would call and set up an

appointment. It looks like they would just shave some of it away to

release some of that pressure from her eye. I don't think it's

anything to worry about in the meantime. It does take a couple of

adjustments to get the fit just right. We had the same issue with my

son's ear, and it took two adjustments to get it to stop pressing

down.

Good luck!

My daughter's eye did the same thing in the beginning. We had it adjusted and that helped some. However, our ortho told us that this is nothing to worry about, it won't permanently make her eye smaller or anything like that. As she grew and her head got bigger, it squished her eye less and less. He didn't want to shave off too much because it needs to hold in that place (is what he told us). Now, that my daughter has already worn her band for more than 3 months, it only does this when she is on her stomach or looking up.
