My sister had " lazy " eye - they would go <out>, as opposed to mine, which

would go >in< or cross-eyed. We weren't vaccinated. My mother was told by

Kaiser (in the 60s, abt. 1965 or so) that surgery was the only answer. What

they would do is take a hook, like a crochet hook, and put it back behind the

eye somehow and pull or move the muscles. I'm sure I don't hav it exactly

right, but that's what I remember. Anyway, my mom said pishaw. It does that

when she's tired. so what? It so happens that that year our school went to

accelerated learning, which included SRA, a reading program. Part of it was

each day we started the class with eye exercises. I still do them. and

neither of us has any problems. well, okay. when my fiance died and she

stayed with me for 3 days, her eye went kitty-wompus. But I accept that as

" normal " , and not something that had to be " fixed " . And it wouldn't hurt to

check out the cranio-sacral therapy. My son has apraxia, and it, in addition

to brain gym are very good for him, although they focus on the

speech/communication areas, not the eye stuff. His eyes were adjusted by a

chiropractor when he was 2mos and 4 mos, and we haven't had a problem since

(one seemed to droop and was sunken more).

I have heard of good results from cranio-sacral therapy. Find a good,

well-educated therapist. They adjust the bones in the head by just holding

gently on the head and spine - no serious adjustments here.

I agree cranial sacral can work wonders with the right osteopath. Also, check

out Brain Gym. A friend of mine's daughter had 3 surgeries and her eye

returned to " wandering " or " misbehaving " within 3 weeks to 3 months. In

frustration, he took her to Dennison, Educational Kinesiology and Brain

Gym's founder, who spent an hour with her and her eyes have " behaved " since

them. He was so impressed that he gave up his very well paid job and became

became an EduK instructor. Sorry I don't have their info with me but it on the

web or email me & I'll get it for you. Best wishes, Ken

P.S. Not all people respond as incredibly as did his daughter but generally

much better than vision therapy and much safer and more effective than surgery.

I would think lazy eye would be a genetic thing. All the males on my side of the family have it and it dates back a long time prior to vaccines. My daughter has it and I am waiting to see what happens to my son.

My little sister had lazy eye when she was young. With exercises, she was able to improve, so that now her eye hardly ever goes wall-eye when she's tired. My eyes went cross, and they are improved as well. We used to do eye exercises (in the 60s) in school as part of SRA Reading that improved my problem immensely. No one else in the family had the problem.

My daughter had lazy eye from the day she was born. It went away (I

guess) so you couldn't conclude that it is only from vaccines, but our

bodys operate on a delicate balance and there is no end to what could

could result if you throw that balance off. So yeah, if lazy eye starts

within a few weeks of a vaccine I think its pretty safe to assume that it

is at least related to the vaccine.

My grandmother had whooping cough at 5 years old, afterwards she went

cross-eyed. Around 14 years old, after wearing glasses, her eyes have

straightened and she no longer needed glasses. Maybe something in the

pertussis caused it? I know that usually lazy eye doesn't seem apparent

until around 2-4 months of age, and that was true even before mass

vaccinations.

Maybe I'm crazy but my BIL had this surgery when he was little and it wasn't a

big deal. I think it's fairly easy to correct surgically. I'm against medical

procedures when they are not warranted, but if the child isn't showing results

with what you stated then wouldn't surgery be the next step?

Can homeopathy be used for physical deformities? I had heard that it was not

useful in cases where the physical problem had exacerbated past a certain point

(i.e. herniated disks or, obviously, broken bones).

I think if I had given the non-invasive course of action a really fair shot

and it didn't work then I'd get it corrected surgically before it was too late.

Just my worthless two cents! ; )

Surgery isn't expected to be helpful in her case. Also, they didn't do anything

except for the patch therapy yet, and perhaps there are other non-invasive

things they could do, but don't know about. Their doctor says there is nothing

that can help this condition other than patch therapy, but you know, she is an

allopathic MD...

I have seen a couple of posts concerning lazy eye & it has me worried.

My girl Rhyan is currently wearing a DOC Band from Cranial Tech & has

been for 3 weeks. We have been real pleased with the results thus

far...but I have noticed that her left eye does not open completely

while she is in the helmet because of a hold on the helmet that is just

above her eye. Her eye is by no means shut but it is not quite as open

as her right eye. Should I be concerned about this? I never

considered the possibility of a lazy eye developing. She certainly

looks around with both eyes in a normal fashion as of today.

I certainly will bring this up at our appointment on Monday, but I am

fearful that perhaps damage has been done.

Thanks for your help.

i did not see the other post, but I would not worry if it happened only while she was in the helmet. My son has been in his 3 weeks. The 1st week his left eye pulled a little sometimes and I had the same concerns. I brought it up at then orthotist appt and he shaved a little out over his eye and it has been gone since;-) I would def bring it up but I would not be overly concerned about it.

yes my son is one of the ones whose eye was squished by the docband but he has eye assymetry so I think that is why. As soon as the assymetry cleared up it no longer squished his eye and he never developed lazy eye or any other issues from it
