The most likely program is SSI. Some hospitals have a Social Security coordinator to help with getting the application started. Otherwise, you can contact Social Security directly (www.ssa.org).

He is 6 weeks old and is having surgery in 2 weeks. He will be having more surgeries and will have to wear a contact lense until he is old enough to have on implanted. Is he eligible for any kind of benefits. SSI or SSDI? I have a son who was born with a cataract. He is 6 weeks old and is having surgery in 2 weeks.

He has no medical insurance, and he is 7 years old. He has special teachers at school as they have been working with him since pre-school. His parents have tried since he was very young to find someone to help them get help for their son. The school performed several tests over a period of 3 years, first they said it was Autisum, then Aspbergers. He continually has problems with focusing and concentration. His grades suffer because of behavior. He has a large file of discipline problems caused by emothional meltdowns. We are really just trying to find the help for him to be able to live functionally in society. He is in the process of starting to try 2 different medications, which are very expensive and will have to be taken indefinately. The insurance companies consider this condition to be pre-exsisting therefore it will be hard to find one. So I guess I am just trying to find out if and where we can get help.

However, Social Security has to find that the condition (autism in this instance) causes significant enough limitations to be disabling. A diagnosis, by itself, is typically not enough.
