| Hello, Sir / Madam, I had earlier enquired about my daughter's condition, for which you had given a reply on 16.1.02 regarding heterochromia. I would like to know further clarifications in this matter, please. My daughter is now just 10 months old. One of her iris is black and the other is greyish-blue. It was not so evident at the time of her birth, but as she is growing up, the difference is very clear. People keep staring at her when we go out and we have to answer a lot of questions to everyone. I'm worried my daughter will have to go through the same ordeal when she grows older. You had mentioned wearing coloured lenses to rectify the problem. We have some more queries in this regard: 1) How soon can she wear coloured lens? Will continous use of lens (for many years) cause any problems? 2) I have been wearing semi-soft lens for the last 3 years- even during my pregnancy period. Could this have, in any way, caused heterochromia in my daughter? 3) Is there any permanent treatment- like operation or some other treatment, so that her right eye colour can be changed to black? 4) No one else in the family( my and my husband's) has greyish blue eyes. Can this trait be passed on to the next generation through my daughter? Please do clarify on these matters, as we have not come across such cases earlier. Waiting for ur reply in anticipation. |
