Yeah .. it's weird. We just noticed it a week ago. One of my nine week old son's eyes stays more dilated than the other. Have any of you ever noticed anything like this before? We're worried his eyes are bad or that something is actually wrong with one of them.

| In case anyone cares (not sure about that to be honest) we called the nurse practitioner at our pediatrician's office. She asked about some symptoms and said she didn't expect it was anything to worry about. He has an appointment next week for a regular checkup anyhow, and they'll look at it then. My guess is lazy eye, which I'm sure will correct itself at this age. |

Yes I was wondering what the nurse said. I didn't have any helpful advise that is why I didn't respond in the first place. Good news, nothing to worry about.  |
