The tumor was removed in September. She is three years old. I'm not spelling it correctly, but the tumor was meduloepehtimola. Dr. Augsburger of Cincinnati did the surgery. The tumor causes new blood vessels to grow in the angle, blocking outflow.
Surgery is ofter necessary.
You daughter is definitely NOT at higher risk for glaucoma in the other eye. Doctor, she actually had surgery for an Ahmed valve last week. We see a doctor on Friday for a check up. I'm planning on calling him in the morning about yellow drainage from her eye that happened only once and left a yellow streak down her face. Possibly it was from the yellow-green dye used during examinations.
