Q
Ocular Health: 1 Month

- When will they open? (2)
- Foveal Reflex present?
a. Disc color?
b. Fundus look? - Pupils response?

- Fixation issue?
A
- Short periods only
- Open w/Sucking Reflex and when infant is held vertically upright
- Not present
a. Pale in color
b. Grayish look to fundus - Miotic, and Reactive to light
a. 3.6 mm +/- 0.9 mm in 10 footcandles of light (Pupils less than 1.8 mm or more than 5.4 mm suggest possibility of neurological damage) - Stenosis is often seen
