Gwydion’s Eyes

Gwydion’s right eye seems to be completely blind already. If I hold his head still, I can only move my finger to within a couple of inches of his left eye before he blinks and moves his head. If I try it with the right eye, he doesn’t move until my finger touches his lashes. He bumps into door frames every once in a while, but otherwise you wouldn’t suspect anything was wrong.

I’ve been making him wear his Doggles outside, and he’s doing OK with them now. His new ones just came today (we got the metallic blue, with a spare set of clear lenses), and they seem to fit better (guess they’ve improved them since we bought the first pair so very long ago). Yes, yes, I promise to get a picture soon!

Some “Gallows Humor”

Mark keeps saying that we ought to get him a glass eye, maybe with a skull and crossbones instead of a pupil. I think he would be better with an eye like that of Mad-Eye Moody (couldn’t decide which link I liked better, so there are two there).
