Mitch - This is a very good article and thanks for doing due diligence on the Rx for that kid. I think the problem with the medical profession is that in an effort to assess the risk vs reward dynamic, the doctors focus only on prescribing medication to address the problem. There is not much thought or direction given to alternate ways to help a patient - with diet and perhaps exercises to the eye. It's just not part of their medical training and sadly a missed component.
