Vision Test and Admissions

I took Zoe in to the Children's Developmental Services office today for a vision test and admissions. She passed the vision test with flying colors. The lady held her cell phone in front of Zoe and moved it around, checking to see how Zoe could track things. She then held a light up (similar to the kind doctors use to check the eyes and ears) to see how Zoe reacted to light. The light would flash and Zoe would blink or look for it.

The admissions part was really quick. They got our financial information to determine where we fall on a financial responsibility scale of 'how much can we afford to pay'. The initial evaluations are free for us (the county pays for it) but if Zoe needs any kind of help (such as physical therapy) then we will be responsible for a certain percent of the cost.

Our next visit will be October 8th. This will be a complete evaluation of Zoe at home. I'm looking forward to it.

This afternoon we have Zoe's 4 month checkup with the doctor. I'll give an update when we get back from there.
