Hi, I am new to the forum and would like to say hi. I recently adopted my daughter, now 4 years old. She sustained an injury to her left eye at age 3 months and is completely blind in that eye. I thought the treatment was going to be fairly straightforward (and maybe it will be) with the fitting of a shell. But now that she has seen a couple of doctors, I have lots of questions. So I'm so glad I found this forum! I'm looking forward to chatting with all of you!

Hi a big welcome to LE - and congratulations on your adoption of a gorgeous little girl. You will find a terrific bunch of people on this, who will answer your questions, be caring and so very supportive. Whatever questions you have - ask away. good wishes sally

Hi Welcome to LE; and congrats of your daughter. We have lots of parents here which kiddies who have eye/sight problems. 2 weeks ago we got a new member who adopted a daughter from China with eye problems. I will put up a link for you; if you want. Do you have specific questions; if so; ask away. Cheers vera

Vera, I would love that link. My daughter is also from China. Thanks!

Hi; coming right up. The family have adopted (I think) 5 kiddies from China.
cheers vera

Congratulations on your little girl!

Hi; I did pm the other mum but sometimes that can take a while; in the meantime here is her original post
