Folds are hard to see between six and 10 weeks of age, due to the coloring
of the tapetum at that age; folds may easily be missed in young puppies.
For this reason, it is recommended that puppies be examined again at six
months of age.

Now the Opthamologist I go to said that she like to see the puppies BETWEEN
six and ten weeks.  She also said that many times if the puppies is seen
after that, the folds (if they had them), could unfold and be undetectable.
Therefore, if the puppy is not tested early, you really don't know if you
have a dog that is "normal" or not.  So not only is the "bubble sheet"
important but the age in which the puppy was tested.
