Occupational therapist advised daughter of 5 has a brain eye disfunction but what now? went to only eye care practice on our plan in 500km but they said cannot test her. eye specialist quote is r800 which we cannot afford and that is just for a cons?

Lazy eye: If this is "lazy eye" or a condition called amblyopia, placing a patch on the "good" eye for 2 hours at a time can help strengthen the eye that needs help. If the function of the eye does not improve, then an eye specialist would be needed to help guide the next steps.

Eye concerns: Does a physician recommend this test or only the occupational therapist? Ask your health insurance agency if there is a provider outside of your local area that is within their network, who might be able to give her the examination.
