I was taking photos of my 6 yo son the other day and noticed that in one of thr pics his pupil in his right eye looks white. I'm starting to panic in a big way. I'm going to get an appointment at the optician for him asap but i'm terrified for him. anyone else noticed this in their kids photos?

It's possible it is just a glare from the way the photo was taken, but good idea just to get him checked out. I'm sure he's ok :)

I'm really hoping thats all it is. Got an appt for him at the optician today for after school. Totally terrified but need to keep calm for my little boy.

Like swrgrl09 said it is possibly the glare but you are doing the right thing getting it checked. Let us know how his appointment goes. :hugs: xx

I think by far the most common cause for this is just the angle, I think it's only really if it's like that in every photo that it's a concern but definitely best to get it checked. Let us know how you get on. I know how hard it is worrying about your kids. Will be thinking of you.

my sons appointment went well, his eyes are healthy. He needs to wear glasses for reading and watching tv etc but thankfully everything is ok.

If he had that eye thing it would show up in every picture there was a camera flash.

What a relief, so so scary when you think something is wrong with your little ones.
