Remember THIS post from over a year ago?
Where the discussion around the dinner table was about how Erik thought he needed glasses and I thought he just WANTED them?
Well, it turns out he does want them but he also needs them.
I finally took him in at the request of the school nurse. His eyesight is actually pretty close to 20/20 but he has a prism problem? His eyes are rotated in slightly and they are always straining to straighten out.
He gets a lot of headaches.
He officially needs glasses.
He was SO excited! It’s been a LONG week waiting for the wonderful people over at Family Eyecare Specialists to have the glasses ready. But they called this morning and we picked them up.
And loves them!
You can go ahead and award me Mother-of-the-Year right now. It’s only been over a year since he started complaining about his eyesight. Live and learn I guess.
I’m guest posting over at my sister’s fabulously popular blog Tatertots and Jello today. It’s the first in a series on how to take better pictures. GO check it out.
Happy Thursday!
My daughter’s journey to glasses sounds similar. Four girls in her class got glasses over winter break. The pediatrician had referred her in October to an ophthalmologist. Glasses? April. She has very strange eyesight. NEEDS them.
He looks handsome.
I have been to yours and taters blogs independently and am just learning you are sisters…I’m a little slow 🙂 Love the glasses.
I have a prism in one of my lenses too! Not that I can tell. Luckily they can make contacts for it too 😉
