PhotoGal Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Ds was just diagnosed with this at the pediatrician's yesterday. We are going to the eye doctor tomorrow, but thought I would ask if anyone has experience with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I have a friend who developed a mild case of this after living in Hawaii. She is careful now about wearing sunglasses outside, and it has not progressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umsami Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Good friend had it. He had to have surgery at least twice, because it can grow back. (He was a very active outdoor adult...mid 30s...lived on the beach.) I'm not sure if it matters if it is first dx as a kid vs. an adult, though. I'm sure your ophthalmologist will recommend some good sun glasses as well as other preventative things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
