Oh my!!! Why didn’t I find this in May of 2018 when my daughter was born with a cataract and I was NOT doing well. I relate so much to you. I wish I could give you a hug ❤️ Thank you for making this
My 7 year old son has congenital cataracts! A few people in my family were born with them. My aunt is 70 and had complete cataracts in both eyes. She had her first removed at 30yo & second at 40 y. Her son was also born with cataracts…diagnosed at age 3. They both had their eyes fixed as adults. They both were able to get their licenses and they both have lived normal lives. I’m hoping my sons cataract stays the same size, and we can have his removed in his 20s, rather than doing it as a young child. .
Omg I am 13 and was born with a cataract in my left eye and I thought that no one else had this, I've had 4 eye surgeries and now my eyes are different colors with a damaged pupil with that eye being blind but you are such a blessing thank you so much!!!!!
I had the same experience Grace though I have trouble with my right eye and I’m 38yo now. It’s tough at times but don’t worry, you will still flourish in life.
@Homeschoolwithgrace Thank you for sharing. I am watching your video a week before we go into sugery for my 5 year old little girl. We discovered her catarct 6 months ago. She has them in both her eyes and is linkes to a condition calles uveitis. I didnt know what to expect but having heard you I am taking away this is a journey which is individual and it will get better. Your video has been a blessing. God Bless !
Praying for your family as she goes into surgery. I'm so glad to hear the video was helpful. This journey is definitely a marathon and not a sprint so lots of grace for both of you. Let me know how the surgery goes. God bless.
Hi. I was born with bilateral Congenital cataracts, and sadly passed on the condition to 2 of my children. I'm actually in the process of making a video on my channel of our story, but as it's 3 of us to cover, it's proving quite a feat. Lol it was super interesting to listen to your story. 💜
@@nagasaranya9391 He's doing fine and studyiing at school with normal kids doing all regular activity normally.I would suggest to Do the surgery as soon as possible and follow doctor's instructions.
Hi, thank you so much for sharing your journey. My 3 and half year old was just today diagnosed with Cataract and this is the first thing I have come across on RUclips while reserching, I cannot say how helpful it is to watch this. Hannah is such a sweet kid as well, bless her. Thanks again.
@@HomeschoolandGrace Hi, many thanks. We are being referred to a specialist so we will shortly know if it is imperative. The day I watched yourVideo, was the day I first got to know about this condition. Both me and my wife were in shock that day, but hearing you out and seeing Hannah was calming.
good day💕 my son has a congenital catract too both eyes😢 but sad to say we dont yet let him be operated due to financial issues😭 his 2 yrs old today😭 hoping for any charities that can support us for the operation 😢 IM from PHILIPPINES
No, I have not heard of that type of implant. We have talked about a lens implant, but at this point she does not qualify because she tolerates the contacts well.
@@HomeschoolandGrace I happy to hear that, it is something about correcting the lens itself. She is still so young, but I am so happy that she is doing well with the contacts!
Hi Hannah thank u so much for sharing ur experience. My baby had her surgery recently and she is 12 weeks old.i am really scared abt her future. How much vision did she got ?hw is she doing now? What r the routine tat u r following to improve her vision
Im 21yr old with Unilateral Congenital Cataract. My life was really miserable until i started accepting it. I really want to get rid of this soon. Could you tell any adult who faces this same issue?
I think accepting it is the first step, and then rejoice in it, this is your toil. Its going to be hard, but what can you find to be thankful for through this trial. God is good, and he will help you through. Praying you have peace as you work your way through this.
I’m 27 and I still have my cataract in my left eye. We didn’t know that I had it till I was 9, I guess my dumbass thought it was normal and just never brought it up. I don’t have a lazy eye or anything but it is very sensitive to the sun, which sucks coz australia is freaking sunny esp where I live. It’s not visibly cloudy so atm there’s no reason for me to remove it. Hopefully that helps. ❤
My child is three months old and had cataract surgery in both eyes. We started glasses yesterday. While he is laying down the glasses ride up his nose. Any suggestions to keep it intact while he is laying down?
It’s always hard to keep the glasses on when they are so little especially when they are laying down, because they can’t hold their head up. I would do my best to keep them in place and know as they grow older and can sit up the glasses will stay on easier.
My son was born with congenital cataract in his left eye, Thank you so much for making this video, because in 2016 when we found out about his congenital cataract i was clueless and I couldn’t find a single video of personal experience, He had two surgeries , he is 5 now Still patching (not regularly) I just want to know what will be his future like? If his eye will become weaker or he will be completely fine? Please if anybody have any idea , help me out here!?
Thank you for sharing about your sons cataract with me. I don't know what his future will hold for his eye. My daughter is now 7 and her eye has grown a bit stronger, but in the last year or so the prescription has not changed. She does still patch 2 hours a day and the doctor is happy with the consistency of her prescription. We know it will not have perfect vision, but we know what she can see out of it is a blessing.
My daughter had her surgery just before turning 2. She had a catarct in her right eye. Initially, she patched for 6 hours now it has been reduced to 2 hours. Her eyesight has improved a lot since. We started at 18/6 post her surgery, and now it's 8/6 with spectacles. It might not get to 6/6 perfect vision, but it's quite close to normal. Best of luck with your son. I'm sure with proper patching up and follow-ups, he should recover.
My son is 5 and getting surgery in a month. Please tell me how your son is doing after his surgery. Is he wearing bifocals or just reading glasses. Has there been any issues afterwards?
Oh my!!! Why didn’t I find this in May of 2018 when my daughter was born with a cataract and I was NOT doing well. I relate so much to you. I wish I could give you a hug ❤️ Thank you for making this

Have you heard of panoptix lens implant? I know this video is old, but have they said whether she is a candidate or does she have to wait until 18?
No, I have not heard of that type of implant. We have talked about a lens implant, but at this point she does not qualify because she tolerates the contacts well.

Ok. One more query, is vision fully recovered for your daughter?
Can your child see now ?
My son was born with congenital cataract in his left eye,
Thank you so much for making this video, because in 2016 when we found out about his congenital cataract i was clueless and I couldn’t find a single video of personal experience,
He had two surgeries , he is 5 now
Still patching (not regularly)
I just want to know what will be his future like? If his eye will become weaker or he will be completely fine?
Please if anybody have any idea , help me out here!?
