 So it turns out our son has incredibly poor vision in his left eye and his right eye isn’t much better. He is 5 years old and in the past year we have noticed it get much worse, fairly quickly. Well we are finally on the right track to getting his vision corrected, the optometrist says it is something he could outgrow, but that he needs serious help now.

We are starting with corrective glasses for a year, a new pair every 3 months (stronger each time). We will re-assess his vision at the end of the year and determine whether or not he will need corrective surgery. Needless to say, glasses every 3 months wasn’t in our budget, and especially at the cost of his lenses!

We have since ordered 5 pairs and have been 100% satisfied thus far.  I was surprised at the durability of the glasses, we ordered a second pair for our little guy in case the first pair broke, but we haven’t had to use them yet!
