Dannielyn's Eye Problem

LARRY BIRKHEAD explains Dannielyn's eye problems on ET and was overwhelmed with response from caring fans. ANNA NICOLE SMITH's baby girl is wearing an eyepatch.

"She has strabismus, which is a turning in of one of her eyes, and it's something that we've been looking out for for a while. I've been taking her to the doctors and ... Anna had taken Dannielynn to the doctor [in the Bahamas] to see about it when she was just a few months old."

Found in about five percent of children, the eye condition is perhaps better known as "cross-eyed" and it is something that cannot be outgrown and must be treated. An eyepatch is used to cover the strong eye in an effort to strengthen the weak one.

"I got her a little pirate doll to show her that people wear patches, and it's okay," says Larry, "and daddy wears a patch if he has to to show her it's okay. I've been really aggressive with the patch as much as I can be. At first she was really open to it and it didn't really bother her. Now, she's gotten a little smart because she can pull it off, so it's a little bit harder for me to patch her."

But if the eyepatch doesn't work, or if using medicated eyedrops to dilate the pupil fails, little Dannielynn may face surgery.

"I'm going to do everything to make sure that it's corrected," says Larry, "but having lost Anna and [her son] DANIEL and my dad -- my dad just came out of a simple surgery and he died -- it's just tough for me to think about surgeries with [Dannielynn]."

And Larry staunchly defends any suggestion in the tabloids and on Web blogs that Dannielynn's condition has anything to do with methadone or any medications Anna may have taken during her pregnancy.

"All of the opinions that I had [from doctors], every one of them said that it's very, very unlikely, because no one knows 100 percent what causes [strabismus]," says Larry. "But I point-blank ask every single doctor, 'Could any medications that Anna was on have caused this?' and they said that it's more likely that a genetic reason could have caused it."

Suri Cruise to be a Big Sister?

Here is one of the latest Suri Cruise photos I've seen. It'sin New York January 21. Rumour has it that Katie Holmes has been shopping for Baby #2! Is Katie Holmes expecting?

The actress is reported to have spent over £1000 on babywear at LA boutique Petit Tresor last week. Suri got a new summer wardrobe and Katie also picked out baby clothes. 'Katie ordered loads of cute girlie spring dresses for Suri,' a source reveals. 'But she also bought a pink T-shirt which said Big Sister and two matching rompers suits, one which said Little Sister; the other saying Little Brother.' In December last year Katie, 29, admitted she'd love more kids with Tom, 45. 'She had it all figured out,' the source tells People. 'She would shoot her new movie and then get pregnant. She was hoping to have the baby by the end of the year, go back to work next spring and have another film out by the end of 2009. 'Both she and Tom - especially Tom - were hoping to have their next baby before Katie turns 30 in December.'
