Someone above mentioned VT doesn't last - and we're finding that to be true for our dd - she's starting to have vision issues again, but my gut feeling is if we could get her to do her exercises she'd not have the loss of muscle tone and wouldn't be dealing with regression in vision. While it's true that the exercises are work and have to be done daily (our dd had to do them twice daily for quite a while) - they aren't *that* horribly terrible and some of them were even fun for a child.

This really concerns me. I plan on asking about VT in conjunction with surgery to help maybe prevent this? I have no idea as I have not asked yet ... I touched on it briefly with one doc and she said we could talk about that (ie explore the idea of surgery in addition to the VT) but we haven't yet. Polarbear or anyone else - do you have any info on how to truly "fix" (aka get lasting results) the problem of strasbismus? Is surgery and therapy a way to get that or is this it? Is this a challenge that will keep coming back to haunt DS?
