Three Times a Charm?

My dear Gabriel has an issue with his eyes and I swear he is going to blind before he gets to his teen age years. When he was about 3, Ezra poked him in the eye with a straw which actually cut his eye ball. We went to the eye doctor and she gave us a prescription for an antibiotic to prevent any infection from happening. His eye healed fine. About 9 month later Gabe was swinging around a plastic container and hit his eye. I looked at it and saw that he indeed cut his eye ball again. Since it was Sunday, I took him to the emergency room where a doctor looked at it and prescribed an antibiotic to prevent an infection from happening. His eye healed just fine. Well... About a week and a half ago Gabe was climbing onto my bed holding a piece of card stock and bumped his elbow with his knee causing him to hit his eye with the paper and cutting his eye once again. I called the doctor and pleaded with him to not make me come in for an appointment since we had been through this before and knew the procedure. He wrote a prescription for an antibiotic to prevent an infection from happening and called it into our nearest pharmacy for us to pick up. I thanked him and we went about our business. That night Gabe woke up screaming worse than he did when he initially cut his eye. I told him to just go back to sleep and we would worry about it in the morning. He made a big fuss but finally went back to sleep. In the morning he was screaming again so I called and made an appointment with the eye doctor again. She put some numbing drops in his eye and some dyed eye drops that help her see the cut. She turned away from Gabe to throw the eye drop applicator away. When she turned back to him she said, "Oh my!" Apparently, he cut a flap off his eye and when he fell asleep his eye lid acted as a suction cup so when he opened his eyes his flap was torn more. The doctor said that most grown men come is crying and on their knees from the pain that a cut like this causes. She put a contact "band-aid" on his eye, gave him some super cool sun glasses to protect it from bright lights, and gave us lubricating drops to prevent callusing on his eye ball. I seriously have no idea why my little guy has such bad luck with his eyes but he does. I can only pray that his eye problems only come in 3's.
