School and Developmental Optometrist

Although I picked her up from school in a good mood, she said they did not do anything different with the babies. She didn't seem as upset about them, but then again we didn't have time to talk in depth about it. She hates to tell me anything about school on the 30 minute ride home. I usually only get anything out of her during her exercises, which we didn't do because we had our vision therapy appt. The optometrist decided to re-test her reflexes and siad that about 3 of them remain only slightly. I don't know what to believe. Since reflexes are not what he specializes in, I am not giving it too much weight. Given her level of trust and playfulness combined, I'm not sure how accurate the tes the same could ever be. He kept repeating the testing of the same reflex, getting a little different reaction every time. Wouldn't her response be conditioned? I would think the first response would be the most accurate, although he was told that repeating was most accurate. I will have to talk to Bette on this one. She has the final say call since reflexes IS her specialty. For example the moro- I tested her one way and Bette tested her another way. Both were negative. The op tested her 2 different ways and only got a slight response on one and that was after repeating it several times. I just hate that there is a difference of opinion, I guess there always will be between 2 different disciplines. Really though, the results are what matters, and my sweet girl is doing great.
