Yes, from today, Ada also wears glasses. The commission Tuesday afternoon we just left the visit with the ophthalmologist and we went to pick up this afternoon. Appreciated the speed of optics! The truth is that it was a hard blow for us, not because they have to wear glasses but mostly because Ada has proved to be very myopic . From 12 diopters in one eye and 11 in another, even in these early glasses Ophthalmology has a lowered diopters. When the laser was operated on 2 November 2009, already warned us that the ROP increased risk of myopia and strabismus and other complications, but never imagined that we could reach these levels. In our families there is a history of myopia magna genes and were not prepared for it. I particularly have conceded this much worse news than that of the hearing, perhaps because the evolution of Ada in the last six months has been nothing but positive and had begun to forget the possible consequences their extreme prematurity . Furthermore, I asked the doctor if myopia continue to grow and he replied that depended on each child, which in some cases corrected a bit in childhood and had another peak in adolescence, and in others was always more. This last possibility makes me very afraid because I know that beyond the use of headphones we have cochlear implants, but I think there is little (or no) room for maneuver before an eventual blindness. I run too much and probably are irrational fears of mother, as I understand people who said that alcohol could be much worse.
The fact is that Ada has released this afternoon glasses. They are orange with rimmed glasses and organic pasta, and have two holes in the rods to secure the fastening with a rubber neck. We have fun but also tried to thin and discreet ear headphones also have to sustain. The truth is that the reaction of our lioness in optics has been very positive and confirmed that her glasses were necessary: \u200b\u200bas soon as we left, started to look around her carefully and made a pair of laughter, and has become very serious when there have again removed to adjust the rubber. Returning home was turn his head 180 degrees to see everything that happened in the street, and even have the impression that crawl more speed and better handling objects and toys! Well, see Now if we detected and corrected (the important) deficit visiu encouraged to walk at once!
Some friends and acquaintances have asked how we noticed that the girl looked good there. To be honest, we do not suspect anything. When he was 5 months corrected came home from a cousin, Ada has the same age and I was very surprised that so excited watching her mother prepared a bottle for ten or twelve feet away. I remember at that time I told Andrea that Alberto would do a view of an eagle, but I attributed the lack of reaction to his Ada psychomotor retardation. A couple of weeks, the speech therapist told me that he felt he was approaching a few toys, but I did not give more importance, however had to review a few days ... Thus, myopia has detected an ophthalmologist for periodic checks many since leaving the hospital. A child born would have found out much later, with the consequent prejudice to their psychomotor development and visual acuity. As always, we thank our health system and professionals who monitor the Ada!
change the subject from today until Thursday and we enjoyed the company of Gaspare uncle, with whom we visited on Friday and Saturday for the first time in Valencia. The following Ada enjoyed much movement fish ' Oceanog Rafic , and we see how we get rid of the uncle playing with his niece. Besides being a survivor, had our little luck with her grandparents and uncles. It is the first grandchild and niece both sides and I guess that is why dear!
