Kinley had her first eye exam this morning.
It started with a series of eye drops being administered over a period of three hours. Then the doctor came by to examine her. He paid close attention to her retinas.
The results came back positive. Her eye development is premature, which is of course no surprise. Thankfully, no other abnormalities were spotted in her retinas and the related blood vessels. Her next exam won’t be for another two weeks.
They say the eye exams, with the pupil dilation and tests, usually make for stressful days for the babies. To help, they keep her room extra dark. Kinley is taking it all in stride.
