The Eyes Have It

The girls had an eye appointment today to check the progress of their ROP. Everything is looking very good.

Natalie had the best report. The ROP is gone in her right eye, although it is not completely mature. Her left eye is completely mature. Abigail is "looking" (he-he) good, too. Both eyes still show Stage 1(of 3), Zone 3 (of 3). It's the same stage/zone as her last check up but the doctor said they look better. I guess there are various stages of Stage 1/Zone 3.

All in all, a great report. So good they don't have to go back for 6 weeks! It's really amazing they have done so well, especially Abby. She was so close to surgery two different times. Considering that almost everyone in our families wears glasses, the girls are probably doomed anyway, but at least they don't have to worry about ROP.
