Foster Remy went for her follow up visit with the Opthalmologist today and all is good. The Dr. said that her eyes look great and she is tolerating her meds very well so one of the drops was reduced from 2x a day to 1x a day. While Remy's long term prognosis remains unknown, the hope is that she will remain on the drops for the rest of her life with no further changes to her eyes (i.e., anterior luxation, retinal detachment and glaucoma). In fact the Dr. said they have another dog with Remy's condition who has been on the drops for years and is doing well so hopefully Remy will follow suit! The plan is to continue with her meds, avoid rigorous play (specifically anything that involves shaking of her head), watch for any changes and visit the Opthamololgist 3 or 4 times a year to ensure all remains well.
Miss Remy Rue has settled in quite well with us and is just one of the gang. Here are a few adorable pics of her resting that I've been saving for this update. But don't let the pictures fool you....this little charmer is a very active girl!
Tricia and Remy
