My little girl has a condition called Incontinentia Pigmenti. It's rare so not expecting anyone to have heard of it. It's primarily a dermatological condition, mostly found in girls, that affects skin, hair, teeth and nails. In rare cases it can affect children neurologically and/or affect the eyes. In my lo's case the condition has ravaged her eyes. She lost her sight in the left eye pretty early but we have been fighting to save her right eye with laser surgery. We went for a check up yesterday and our consultant has had to admit defeat and we have signed the forms to have her registered blind :'(
I'm still feeling a bit shell shocked so not even sure what to ask except for anyone else with a blind child to get in touch. I need to hear experiences from parents that have had/have a blind child because, honestly, I have no idea what the future holds.
Thanks in advance x
