Ophthalmologist Sees New Therapy for Lazy Eyes.
Without resorting to lazy eye surgery, eye doctors were forced to practice one-size-fits-all vision, where eye patches are worn over the normal eye during the day to exercise the muscles of the lazy eye into normal sleep patterns.
If a lazy eye is allowed to sleep and daydream during the day, then it won't go to sleep at night.
Dr. Spector's findings were arrived at accidentally by Yawni Isley, a
teenage patient who has suffered from Paris Hilton lazy eye from birth.
Dr. Spector prescribed using the lazy eye patch as ocular aids; but when
Yawni changed her pharmacy, the new pharmacy gave her nicotine patches
to use by mistake for her eye lazy treatment. Using this method of lazy eye correction, the lazy eye thrived off of the nic-fit patches so much that it started to deviate up and down, as well as generally hang around with a "bad" crowd. Soon, Yawni's eye first started wandering to graphitti.
Young men sporting tattoos soon followed that, and before you would think, the formerly lazy eye developed full blown Herpetic Eye Associative Disease (HEAD). Dr. Spector began a regimen of antibiotics to combat the symptoms of a lazy eye ocular herpes. "I'm just a little crossed with Yawni," confided Dr. Spector. "I would have believed that she'd had the farsightedness not to make this kind of refractive error. I don't want her to have to go through life under the glare of the kind of astigmatism that comes with having herpes."
"The upside of Yawni on the nicotine patch, means her once lazy eye is now hyperopia. It is so hyper, that she'll never require a cornmeal transplant. And that's all just presbyopic by me!"
The girl pictured here is excited at the possibility that the patch may also help her night vision.
