I get a lot of questions about how much Danny's eye is open when he is asleep and how often I put in ointment. First off, I only put the "Refresh PM" in his eyes for a week or 2 after surgery. He is now one year out from his second surgery. Second, he amount his eye is open varies but usually is is probably more than halfway closed. In the car (or if he is asleep sitting up for some other reason) his eye is open pretty wide. In the car the other day he fell asleep so I decided to snap a quick picture to show you all:
Don't freak out if you haven't had the surgery done yet. This is really extreme and it usually isn't open this wide, but sometimes it is. And I don't use ointment and he has never had any dry eye problems. It's not something that ever bothers him. Here is the awake picture just after so you can see how normal (although spacey) his eyes can look when awake even if they look like this when asleep:
