One thing that has helped has been supplementing magnesium with a banana a day. I hope that helps and that you get to the bottom of it.<BR/><BR/>BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08002459939261404036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572346401148769790.post-57048687359277097112008-11-21T19:05:00.000-05:002008-11-21T19:05:00.000-05:00Hello, this is my first time by and I have to agre...Hello, this is my first time by and I have to agree that Matthew is very cute! I've had the dilating drops and they are awful. The hardest part for me was that they made any bright light painful. Is it possible that he was blinking defensively at first and now is either stuck in that defensive mode or, because his system is more sensitive, is still feeling the effects? The saline idea is so cruel that I almost think that you should report the eye doc to someone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572346401148769790.post-13363123333285759722008-11-20T21:17:00.000-05:002008-11-20T21:17:00.000-05:00I'm sorry for little Matthew.
