Can children with Retinoblastoma still see??


retinblastoma-cancer of the eye found in kids under the age of 5

I know one little girl with retinoblastoma (still in remission, touch wood).

It depends where the tumor is placed on the retina. In her case, she has good vision in one eye, and much less in the other, because the tumor is dead center in that eye. But yes, she does see well enough, anyway she is able to do alpine skiing.

maybe u should tell what that funky disease is then we can talk about it

dont no :)
