Hi... I'm very glad that appropriate screening for ROP is being done for your baby.
With regards to the possible swelling of left upper lid - it does not look red or inflamed in the photos provided.
Next Steps
If possible, kindly prepone the next ROP screening where the eye specialist can evaluate the possible eye swelling along with the screening of the retina.
