Corrie - Wow... what a whammy. I wish I could give you more encouragement!
What kind of blindness does your child have? I'm a nurse and nurse practitioner student so I'm curious. My five-year-old daughter's father has Amblyopia (or lazy eye), which caused him to be blind in that eye because they didn't catch it until he was 7 years old. It's hereditary but so far she seems ok.
As far as Eli's size goes.... do you have Pre-eclampsia or just chronic high blood pressure? In pre-eclampsia, the baby can start to measure small because it's not getting everything it needs inside from the placenta, possibly due to the constricting blood vessels that supply the womb, and partly because the placenta just isn't working as it should with the high pressures. It becomes a balancing act, in that they have to weigh the risks of delivering early, which isn't desired, unless the baby would be better cared for/(grown) outside the womb.
I guess the biggest thing for you to remember in this situation is as long as you're doing everything YOU can do bedrest and taking medications as prescribed, there's nothing more to be done. You are being followed (it sounds) very closely which is great, and the fact they already have found the baby is small this early means you will get extra great care.
I've gone through bouts of depression through all this, but it waxes and wanes and eventually I realize it's out of my control and I've got to give up the worry to God. My husband keeps telling me: "It's in God's hands Doll."

Take care and hang in there!
Elizabeth- WONDERFUL! You are an inspiration!!! So glad you've made it this far

I know what you mean about tiring when walking short distances, I get winded just moving around in the bed, and my heart rate jumps up to like 140 just shifting. My husband thinks I'm a little dramatic sometimes, but I really get out of breath so quickly. This is my 7th week of bedrest, and my babies (24wks twins) are now
viable!!!!!
