he sees that this would benefit. My son had surgery on just the one
eye last May. It seems to be a success. Good luck with everything.

Duane's in her left eye at 3 months. She is scheduled for the MRR
surgery on January 12 to alleviate her head turn. Our Dr. said that
he likes to do "a little" on BOTH eyes and he gets the best
results. I really trust him because he has an excellent reputation
and has a lot of experience with Duane's. I just don't feel like I
understand why it is necessary to operate on both eyes. I plan to
call him and discuss this further before her surgery on Jan. 12, but
I was wondering if anyone else here has heard of this? Any input
would be appreciated. Thanks :)
