Doctor confirms there is no reason to worry, despite dilated pupil

in #health6 years ago (edited)

Luna eyes.jpg

There has been a fair amount of family concern building around our discovery two days ago that one of Luna's pupils is always more dilated than the other. Photos confirmed it has been there since birth and today an eye specialist confirmed he could find nothing which indicates a neurological disorder.

This is what she looked like one year ago:

A second specialist will examine her in two weeks and will either give us the all clear or recommend further tests, most likely an MRI brain scan.

I am no expert yet I have been feeling sure from the moment I spotted it that what we are looking at here is nothing to be afraid of.

This condition (also known as Anisocoria) usually happens later in life after some kind of trauma (emotional or physical) or as the result of a life threatening condition in the brain.

It is not uncommon for people to have mild symptoms (a difference of less than 1mm) but this is not the case for Luna. In brighter light, the difference is clearly more than 1mm.

I choose to believe she has been born with the ability to see the world a little different to us and it is my job as a parent to figure out how best to assist her with the development of this ability.

In conclusion

I doubt any doctor will ever be able to tell us the cause of this, but that's okay. I never expected to have 'normal' children.

Esteban was born with a prominent V shape on his forehead as you can see here.

It still shows today in times of heightened energy when he is happy or sad.

Am still figuring out exactly what this means but feel pretty sure he has a heightened energy in his 3rd eye chakra. Which should mean heightened psychic abilities.

As for Luna, it will be a few years yet before I can establish the answer to her vision question but until then I will be researching and devising various eye tests with the intention of discovering her super power!

Unless of course it turns out she is simply a reincarnation of David Bowie.

I have the same problem. My vision is not affected in anyway that I can tell. It comes and goes (from very noticeable, to barely being able to tell), depending on light and other factors. Glad to hear the doctor confirms there's no need to worry! I've always wondered why or what it was called.

Thank you for the reassurance. I can see the same thing with Luna. In the dark it is barely noticeable and pretty extreme in bright light.

Have you had it since birth?

You're welcome. I'm not exactly sure to be honest, I noticed mine was somewhere in my late teen's to early 20's. I never paid attention to it until someone pointed it out to me.

A little shamanic session she be fine... Beautiful daughter & family my bro...
Miss you around, family get dispersed in Bali...
Thx a lot for the video, for the moment is perfect to show the land and villa... Once mam feeling better mite ask for add on technical details like land size & ground position north, south...
Sending you, Sabrina & all your fantastic family lots of love from Bali!!!
Hope you growing some good weed =) there hemp is legal...
Bisous bro :*

Maybe in Switzerland but it definitely isn't legal here. They are currently changing the law in France to introduce softer penalties, so they are at least moving in the right direction...

No problem to make any changes in the film. Just let me know when you're ready.

We miss you too bro and your very special energy. We will be back soon enough to check in with the big Bali family :) Gros bisous

Don't worry, my son had the same problem when he was little.
Luna is a wonderful little fairy :)

Thank you for letting us know about your son :)

Great to learn we are not so alone after all...

Now to figure out what it means!

Great news, there is nothing to worry about and she will have a talent to be discovered for sure!

I know I am guilty of getting excited about things people don't usually get excited about! But this really feels like a parental challenge to me... find the super power and develop it :)

I don't think it is a coincidence that both of them have now given me clues as to what their super powers relate to...

Good reason to be excited and taking the challenge, keeping your eyes open and they will let you know :)

She's so gorgeous! They both are! And yes I too think that this is a gift of sight. I look forward to the day where she can tell us all what the world looks like trough her incredible eyes!

Excellent! Am glad you agree :)

Am also looking forward to this moment very much x

Thank you for updating us! Yeahhhhhhhhh!!!!! Glad she's fine.

Yeah! Sabrina seems much happier with this knowledge. And so too does my mother!

I never had a doubt ;)

Never actually heard of this condition, glad it's nothing "serious." And perhaps beneficial, in the metaphysical sense.

I hadn't heard of it either till this moment. And I still find it slightly strange that in cases where it doesn't relate to trauma or neurological disorders, the cause is completely unknown. An area for further research perhaps???

I'm voting for enlarged pineal gland ;)

you have very beautiful daughter, I don't think you should worry about, just her personal feature, but it shows that you are very very responsible parent

I do my best ;)

That's great news!

Thanks. It is ;)

Great to hear there is nothing to worry about. Indeed maybe it is due to an heightened enlightenment 💯🐒

That's what I am voting for ;)
