Success Stories

This 7-month-old patient underwent tear duct probing to open up a blocked tear duct to alleviate excessive tearing. This picture was taken in the operating room at Scottish Rite Children’s Hospital.
A one-year-old patient came to the Center because her parents were concerned that one eye looked bigger than the other eye. The exam was difficult as her corneas were cloudy.
A 12-year-old male with Keratoconus, a disease in which the cornea protrudes like a cone, was treated at the Center. His vision had decreased to 20/200 in each eye because of irregular astigmatism.
Our training fellow examined a 10-year-old boy who complained of blurred vision. This child with limited financial resources needed financial assistance for transportation to the Fulton County Clinic as well as for medical care.
