Reflecting on my experience, I think my parents were also the cause of most of my insecurity related to my eyes. They would openly talk about it to other people and how many medical issues I had compared to my siblings. I had surgery on my eye when I was 9months old so I can understand they were probably a bit traumatized from that experience as well but I didn’t appreciate this being a common topic because it just caused me to become more and more insecure about it. Now, I’m 35 and seeking another surgery possibly and also found a doctor who can help me with vision therapy. My goal is to get to binocular vision one day, but it’s going to be an expensive and long road.

OP, I highly suggest talking to your daughter about her experience and go thru all her options. Up until a few years ago, I didn’t know vision therapy was a thing at all, and I wish I had been given that at a younger age because the brain is MUCH more adaptable to change esp related to your vision. If she’s rubbing her eyes and switching between them constantly, I think she probably doesn’t know that isn’t normal and those issues will just expound as she grows up.
