The school did a vision test, said 20/30 – that she could see the blackboard fine, that while 20/30 is normal any “squinting” would be up close.
I made an appointment with an optometrist anyway.
Turns out her vision is 20/50, though her eyes are healthy. The did this cool digital imaging thing – no more dilation!, She does have floaters though. No blurriness.
The optometrist is very concerned that she only use it for distance viewing – copying off the board, or watching TV. NOT for reading or bookwork.
So Emily picked out a pair of purple nine west glasses with a sort of flattened pentagonal shape and beads on the side. (I will post photos when they come in, in about a week.
Can’t wait to see pictures! J got his glasses at 5 and is *supposed* to wear them HA!
Interesting about the no dilation needed…that is a nice change.
