what?!? no more eye doctors for nine months?!? thats right. we took annabel for her follow up eye visit to see how the whole corneal abrasion/flipped eye lid/hazy scar issue was affecting her vision. they pulled out the dilation drops, bright lights, eye scopes and special lenses and she came out winking and smiling on the other end. the doctor said that both eyes look exactly like they should for a four-month-old with good vision. that was pretty awesome news. now, there is still a hazy scar on her left eye but it is below her pupil and shouldn't offer her any problems. i asked when it would go away and he told me probably never. whoa. apparently a baby's eyes are so fragile and impressionable that a trauma such as the one that she had so early in her life will leave a mark that will be with her forever. it will be interesting years from now when she is aware of something different in one eye. i guess then she can't acuse us of making all of this up. :)
in the picture below, her left eye has a cloud on it. that is the scar.
