Justin had is 1 year hearing test this morning and passed with flying colors. They checked his ear drums and ran a series of tests which all came back normal. They will follow him yearly until age 3 , which is when his risk factors for any hearing loss decrease.
Justin also had a follow up eye exam on Friday. Now that he's almost 1 they've switched the focus from looking for any remaining signs of ROP, to looking at his tracking and following. His eyes look pretty good so he doesn't need to be seen again for 4 months.
We've come a long way from the weekly eye appointments and being told that he had mild hearing loss in one ear.
This is all such great news. I'm sure it's a relief and a joy to hear nothing but positive news from the doctors. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhew! Justin's coming along quite nicely.
