Lost the "import" feature on iPad screen in iphotos. Maybe the latest update to iOS 8 caused this?

Hello annettefromme,
If you've updated your iPad to iOS 8, the Photos app has replaced iPhoto for iOS. The resource below will explain how it works:

Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
iPhoto for iOS is not supported on devices with iOS 8 or later. This article will explain how to migrate your iPhoto data to Photos.
How to migrate
To migrate your iPhoto for iOS data to Photos, tap the iPhoto app. When you do so a "Migrate data from iPhoto to Photos" dialogue appears.
Tap Migrate to start the migration process. If you choose Cancel, the dialog is dismissed, but will again appear the next time you tap the iPhoto icon. When you start the migration process, Photos opens and a progress bar appears.
Important: Do not delete iPhoto from your device until after you've successfully migrated your data or it won't be possible to migrate your data.
I hope this information helps ....
