I've raised it with my gp health visitor and they can't see any signs of it upto now but I keep getting told that it can effect him later on in life because I've been worrying about his eyes as they wander off in different directions he had an appointment today and they said everything seems fine and that they can't see anything wrong at the moment just that they are going to keep monitoring him as he gets older
