So, if the numbers DON'T change, what would the doctor do?
I mean, you know ... being that your daughter's vision is obviously still impaired. What would be the therapy, treatment if the numbers don't go over the threshold into deeming it glaucoma?

He didn't say ......... Just that we would start her on meds....... Being doing research........ Exercise brings down the numbers ...... 3 times a week that is...... So brisk walking is in the plans .......

Also blueberries are supposed to bring down the numbers but a person can't eat enough blueberries but there is a natural pill called bilberry.... Got some of those today...... and multi- vitamins can't hurt.....

So with all that I'm hoping by the time (4 months) we go back her numbers will not have changed or gone down.......
