Patient's question:
Detailed medical history and consultation purpose: My child was born at 28 weeks and stayed in the hospital for 54 days. Due to breathing pauses, they almost received oxygen every day for the first month. When discharged, the doctor recommended that I go for a vision screening after one month. However, after researching, I found out that the optimal screening period had already passed. The problem is that no hospital can perform a retinal examination. As I sought medical advice, time passed day by day. Now, the child can see bright toys and follow them with their head, but they cannot see adult faces. Additionally, they seem to have a slight cross-eyed condition.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the child's condition, the child's vision is recovering, don't worry, it is necessary to take the child to the ophthalmology department for regular check-ups.
