Sorry to hear about your sons misfortunes with the surgery. How old was he when he had it done? My son tried getting it this past summer (20+ years old). Docters at Kremmer wouldn't do it cause they had no historical data showing his eyes had stopped growing/changeing. Told him to come back when he came home for winter break. Exam 6 months later showed no change so procedure was completed last week. Removed glasses/patches after 6 hours and he was like a little kid at Christmas. Never knew the channel was displayed in the upper right-hand corner of the TV as well as many other little suppries. Can't wait for baseball season. Not sure what will happen down the road but so far so good.
