baby fell eye dilated

6-month-old baby fell off bed onto carpet.  His arms, legs, eyes checked out ok.  A little while later I noticed eyes are unevenly dilated.  Eating, laughing, jabbering, napping is all normal.  Eyes react quickly to flashlight, then dilate unevenly again.

With little infants like this I always recommend seeing your pediatrician first.  Very important to call him right away.

Have him checked by a pediatric ophthalmologist.

I am not a doctor, but an experienced and well-read eye patient.
