Meet our Patchers

Jax is 3 years old and patches 2 hours a day to strengthen his left eye after having an eye injury at 12 months old. Jax likes to wear his patches early in the morning while he is having breakfast and morning babycino ☺️ as this is a little distraction for him......

Henry is three, lives in 🇨🇦 Canada 🇨🇦 and patches six hours a day to strengthen his 'curious' eye. Since starting occlusion therapy a month ago, his doctor has seen significant improvement in his vision, exactly what we LOVE to hear at Speckles ❤️

This tiny patcher, Hazel Milan, is 6 months old and only started patching in June 2022 ❤️ Hazel has strabismus in her left eye that will most likely need surgery later this year. Her mum, Lucy pops her patch on for 1 hour a day so her curious eye grows strong 👏

Lillian is 5 years old and patches 2 to 4 hours a day to treat her Amblyopia. Her mum, Vien was worried she would resist patching but found encouraging her to collect the patches and pop them on the Speckles poster was a perfect motivation.

Noah was born with a dense congenital cataract in his right eye which was removed at 6 weeks old and within weeks, he started his patching journey. His mum Emily says the first couple of years of patching were really hard and but as Noah is getting older it has become easier.

Miriya is 4 years old and has only been on her patching journey for 2 weeks. Like most kids, she wasn't too keen to patch at first but her mum said she's had success with Speckles Hide&See Patches and they're now up to 9 consecutive days of patching ❤️🎉

Violet is 10 months and has been patching since she was 3 months, for 3 hours a day due to her Congenital Third Nerve Palsy. CN3 Palsy is a rare condition that affects the third cranial nerve's ability to control the movement of eye muscles.
