Poor Masaki after laser surgery
Masaki's follow up eye check up this morning. Dr. said his right eye was getting worse so laser surgery became necessary. His left eye was not so bad though Dr. said it would be better to do it together. They immediately started preparing for surgery, gave anesthesia to him. Dr. gave him about 220 laser shots each. Sedation drug was used to make his eyes stay though it caused him stop breathing, too, which was a bit worrying though I'm sure NICU will take take good care of him until this gets out of his system. They boosted up oxygen up to 25%, and he was going to skip breast milk for 6 hours for monitoring. Meanwhile, Naoya's respiration seemed more stable than yesterday, finished bottles a few times. He kept pulling on sensors causing errors on monitoring machine quite often...
