Have name changed as is very identifying to certain people who knew I was going to optician today (ex(stalker)MIL).
DS1 is 7 - 8 in July and had one very weak eye. He has an urgent referral letter because apparently they can only correct this up until the age of 8.
I'm so glad I took him but so regretful I didn't take him sooner.
The other two DC were fine, fortunately.
DS has chosen his frames and we collect the glasses tomorrow. He has chosen spongebob ones
I know he will be very embarrassed to wear them back to school, especially if he might need a patch later.
Poor poppet has been so unlucky this last 12 months with a broken arm and also severe urinary problems which he happens to have a scan booked for on Saturday. Hope at least that is nothing to worry about.
Anyway, anyone know much about 'lazy eye'? What are the causes, treatments, etc?
TIA
