There will be up to 16 clinic visits, one eye doctor appointment and one telephone call. Your child will also have up to seven eye examinations during scheduled visits.

Blood draws: The total amount of blood that will be taken from your child during this study will be about 69 mL (or about 14 teaspoons).  Total of 14 scheduled blood draws.
