Help with Weaning (Milk Allergy)

Blocked Tear Ducts - Want to Hear Other's Experinces with Opthomoligists

My 4.5 month old has had a blocked tear duct on her left eye since birth. We have used antibiotics for 4 times and we massage it too. It is weapy and often has a yellowish discharge that glues her eye closed after sleeping. The doctor says we can take her to an opthamologist and they will clear the duct by putting her in a papoose and useing a probe to clear the duct. (parents can not be in the room for this office procedure). But it our choice as to how long we let this go on without seeing the opthemologist. Do any of you have...
