things looked good this morning. jasper slept into nearly 9am, a 13 hour night, and woke up in a great mood. an ultrasound confirmed the retina is still attached which is great news, although jasper is not out of the woods yet. the retina can still pull off over the next month or so. we now have to put an ointment in the eye four times a day along with more drops as well as keep him calm. infection and the retina are the main concerns at this point. we have another appointment next friday to check both.
here is a pic of the eye without any patch. the swelling is considerably less than the first surgery. while the doctor stepped out to start up the ultrasound, we showed jasper an anatomical eye model, he pointed to his patch and then the model. he smiled when mara placed it on the eye.
