Thank you all for your words of wisdom and well wishes. Wilson was seen by the Opthalmologist and was diagnosed with ectopic cilia in one eye and distichia in both so he's in surgery now. They say he will look bad and will be in a lot of pain, but should feel much better soon. The poor baby must've been so uncomfortable!!

Oh my gosh, I'm just catching up here. So sorry to see that Wilson had to go through surgery. What is "ectopic cilia and distichia"? Poor baby.Thank you all for your words of wisdom and well wishes.

@JeannieCO...From what I understand, Ectopic Cilia is when an eyelash grows through the inside of the eyelid and rubs on the cornea and frequently causes an ulcer. Distichia is when an eyelash shows up in an abnormal location and grows in an abnormal direction rubbing on the cornea.
He's home recovering now. He's on a number of meds so he's a little out of it, but hopefully on the road to recovery.
