EUA - 20th October 2010
William had his first EUA today and the results were all good. His little eye has grown in proportion with his good eye so its now measuring 11 mm and the good eye is measuring 12.5 mm. When we had them measured at his last operation his little eye was 9.5 mm and his good eye was 11 mm. The pressure in his eye is 8 which is good. He will also be getting a new contact lens with which will have a refractive power of +26 so he will have dropped 3 points from a +29. The only sad news is that we'll have to up his patching time to 50% of his waking hours. We have been patching him 2 hrs a day because his little eye kept on becoming dominant but now they've said lets try 50% of waking hours and then maybe 80% - arghhh! But all in all good news and now I'm trying to get him to sleep!!!! Hope he sleeps all night I feel shattered after an early start to the day and waiting around in the hospital for half a day!
