The Results from the Post Opt appointment

The doctor told us today that Emily Grace's eyes are responding perfectly from the surgery!!! He also said that 75% of children who respond perfectly never have another problem and 25% of those respond well at first and then their eyes reverse on the own. Of course they would need another surgery and sometimes two more. We are praying that she is of the first 75%!! We will have another appointment in 9 months to see what the prognosis is at that point. Also more good news is that her depth perception is already up to a normal scale!! We are grateful for that too!! We also learned that she is a slight bit near-sided which technically means that her actual eyes are long in shape and just like one's foot grows long as he/she ages so does the eye. The longer her eye becomes, the more near-sided she may become. There is no need for glasses yet, but maybe by 1st grade or so. (I am near-sided too, and it was my daughter's eye doctor that actually explained why that is... Hmmm. Did you all out there in cyber space know what it really meant to be near-sided or far-sided? Well, we all learn something new everyday!!!
I don't have to tell that I will be sleeping well tonight!!! :o)
