    How old are you?
    What are your signs of Asperger's? Asperger's can be so mild that you can adjust to social situations without many problems at all. It's not a diagnosis that is etched in stone, if you are young and just having trouble adapting. I wonder if it isn't sometimes too easily diagnosed. But we have a regular responder here whose brilliant husband has it and I think he gets by OK.
    I don't know about the watery eyes. There's too many questions about the surgeries, so that's a question for the surgeon or your regular doctor.

    I have a friend who has had a lazy eye his whole life. His mother was told that he was retarded because he couldn't sit up at the right time. Turns out he is your typical MIT guy brilliant who teaches at the college level. He never had surgery.

    Asperger's is NOT a mental disease! Your brain is wired differently in various ways from other people's brains. I'm married to a guy with Asperger's. You are probably very smart but don't like to be touched, right? You don't like changes and you think in pictures, right?

    Your eye is a separate situation. Have you seen your eye doctor lately about it?

Lazy Eye [ 2 Answers ]

As far as I know, I've always had lazy eye. I had my first surgery when I was 4 years old (1988). The doctor botched it and now I have a tendency to have my chin in the air to balance my eyes out. Naturally, I was made fun of for this a lot growing up and made for rather embarrassing class...
