Ellie had an eye appointment with Dr. Puk in Waterloo to follow up on the two eye infections she had a while ago. He says the ointment and eye drops we've been using are working well. He even noticed that her blinking is getting stronger and her eye is able to close more during blinks. Then he asked her to close her eyes really tight and her right eye closed much quicker and almost all the way. So he noticed a big improvement. When he pointed it out I noticed it also. So he wants to see her back in a month with the same antibiotic regimen we have been using continuing. Then he won't need to see her very often if things still go good with no infections. When doing the vision test she made it to the 20/30 screen in her right eye. Last two or three times and the last IC appointment she could only see 20/50. So there has been another improvement in her eyesight. So the eyedrop in her left eye she gets to help the vision in her right eye is helping also still. This is great news to us.
There is another scheduled Iowa City eye clinic appointment for Monday the 14th of Dec. This Monday. So we will make it through that with hopefully as good findings as today and then drop in to see Dr. Menezes PA so look at Ellie's scab one more time afterward.
Woo hoo!!
