I came in at 1:00pm hoping that she had already gotten her eyes checked........but she hadn't! The eye doctor didn't get there until 2:30. So......I ended up watching the eye exam. The eye exam only took 2 minutes. At 12:30 they dilated her eyes. When the eye doctor got there he used this metal device that went under the bottom and top of her eyeball holding her eye open. All you could see was her little eyeball....looked scary. Then the doctor looked into her eye with a bright light that was attached to his head. Danika cried a little bit, but not as much as I thought she would. It was all over really fast.

The eye doctor said that she doesn't show any signs of abnormal blood vessels but the blood vessels are still not fully matured. She will get another eye exam in 2 weeks.

Grandma and Grandpa Reynolds came in from out of town. They came up to the NICU for a little bit to see Danika! We had to keep the lights off because her eyes were still dialted, but I'm glad they came to see her. :)
