Mike picked the kids up from school today and was greeted by the principal, who told him about Joseph's vision. He was in science today right at the end of the day and all of a sudden his vision got blurry and he got a headache, so she gave him some Tylenol. He went to the after school program as usual, but laid down in the homework room with the lights off. (Nobody called us about him not feeling well...)
The principal said she moved her fingers in front of his eyes and he was able to follow them. When I got home, I used a flashlight to shine in his eyes and his pupils constricted the same. Both eyes moved the same. He said his headache was gone, but his vision was blurry still. So I called our eye doctor at home and talked to her. She said a severe migraine could bring on these symptoms as well, but to watch him closely and if he seemed to be acting weird to take him to the ER. Well he's been acting fine, except his eyes are blurry. She wants us to call her in the morning either way and let her know what's going on and she said she would see him tomorrow if there were still issues.
Since Joseph is acting fine and feeling fine, we decided to have him sleep on it. He's been up here a couple of times for unrelated reasons and his eyes look much better, so we're hoping after a good night's sleep he'll wake up fine. Otherwise he'll be headed to the clinic for a bunch of tests I'm sure and also an eye exam.
I will update tomorrow when I know more.
