Congenital Cataract

Our baby girl was diagnosed as having a congenital cataract.  On November 16, 2012 my brother noticed that her right eye was cloudy and suggested we get it examined as soon as possible.  November 17 we took her the Emergency Room at our nearest Children's Hospital.  Officially she was diagnosed on November 19 by the pediatric opthamologist as having a congenital cataract in her right eye.  Surgery to remove that cataract was performed on November 23.

It was a hard week for our family.  M seemed to be so healthy, was developing in all the right ways, and was moving around our house for months.  We had no idea she couldn't see out of her right eye.  She had been born with this cataract in her right eye and surgery to remove it was done a few days before she turned 9 months old.
